Ángel Correa Leaves Atlético Madrid for Tigres UANL

Ángel Correa is leaving Atlético Madrid to join Tigres UANL in Mexico. The deal was completed after talks in May. He will sign a five-year contract with Tigres, ending a long career with the Spanish club.

Correa’s Departure Confirmed

Correa played his last game for Atlético Madrid at the Metropolitano stadium. He thanked the club and fans on social media and said goodbye in person. Coach Diego Simeone didn’t want to confirm the move, but it has been finalized. Correa will play in Atlético’s last league match and possibly the Club World Cup before moving to Tigres.

Season Performance and Team Standings

This season, Correa has been a versatile forward for Atlético Madrid, scoring goals and providing assists in LaLiga and European competitions. However, his playing time has been limited due to competition for attacking positions. Atlético Madrid is a strong contender in LaLiga, fighting for a Champions League spot and aiming to finish high in the standings.

Tigres UANL is also performing well in Liga MX, ranking near the top and trying to strengthen its squad for a championship run.

What’s Next?

After finishing his commitments with Atlético Madrid, Correa will join Tigres before the new Liga MX season. Tigres has important league matches ahead, aiming to close the gap with teams above them and maintain their lead over rivals below.

Correa’s experience and skills are expected to enhance Tigres’ attacking options. This move is a significant addition to Mexican football and demonstrates Tigres’ ambition to compete at the highest level.
