Ángel Correa gets his way, goodbye to Atlético de Madrid

Ángel Correa has achieved what he had been looking for: putting an end to his time at Atlético de Madrid. This Thursday, the Argentine forward successfully completed his medical examination with Tigres UANL, and only administrative details remain (mainly the work visa) to begin his new adventure in Mexican football. The 30-year-old attacker, who had been craving a change for months, will see his wish fulfilled as soon as he signs and receives the necessary documentation.

Correa lands in Monterrey after a decade wearing the red and white jersey, with an impressive record: 469 games played, 88 goals scored, and 65 assists given. During his time at the Metropolitano, he won significant titles such as LaLiga, the Europa League, and the UEFA Super Cup, in addition to being part of the World Cup-winning squad with Argentina in Qatar 2022 and the Copa America in 2021.

Tigres, on its part, is excited about his addition. Although his official debut will be postponed until July 19 (date of the team's debut in the Apertura Tournament) due to the postponement of the match against Chivas, the wait could benefit the club to finalize the last procedures. The move represents a significant step for Correa, who was not satisfied with being a secondary piece at Atlético and after a tug-of-war with the club, the Argentine leaves to become an important figure in Mexico.
