The Argentine striker will join the team after he participates in the Club World Cup. Tigres has its first reinforcement for the 2025 Apertura of the Liga MX, after they finally reached an agreement with Atlético de Madrid to sign Ángel Correa, an Argentine striker.
A source confirmed at halftime that they have already reached an agreement with the Colchoneros for Correa’s transfer, and he will join the team once his participation in the 2025 Club World Cup in the United States concludes. This article at 96.com provides updates on all of the latest developments regarding Ángel Correa.
How many years will Ángel Correa sign with Tigres?
The Argentine has signed a five-year contract with the Tigres, and he will finally sign after taking the club’s physical and medical tests, which have to be taken before every player signs their contract. Last weekend, the club board sent a formal transfer offer to Atletico de Madrid for the player, but then again at this point it was a completed deal, because manager Guido Pizarro stated on their last training walk that they were at a very advanced stage, himself being currently unavailable due to a family emergency.
“I understand that Ángel Correa’s situation is quite advanced. He wants to come, and I hope it can be resolved as soon as possible,” he said last Saturday. The club has been in talks with Correa’s entourage for several months, trying to convince him and reach a verbal agreement on the financial aspect before moving forward with Atlético de Madrid’s board of directors.

Correa will take one of the foreign player spots on the roster, and the second is likely to be used to add a centre forward. Miguel Borja, a Colombian from River Plate whose contract expires in December 2025, has already been linked to the move.

Correa, now 30, enjoyed a stellar Atlético Madrid career lasting from 2015 to 2025 with the Colchoneros, in which he played over 430 appearances, with more than 75 goals and over 60 assists in all competitions. Correa used his dribbling, versatility, and work rate to great effect for Atlético Madrid and helped them achieve many positive outcomes in their storied history. He had a big impact on Atlético winning the 2020–21 La Liga title under manager Diego Simeone, and played in campaigns on the UEFA Champions League over the years he was with the club, and added some domestic silverware to his already storied career, including the Supercopa de España.
As a key member of the team at the time, Correa provided the necessary contributions in big moments and in many ways before moving to Tigres UANL in Mexico in 2025. For more exclusive updates on Ángel Correa and football stars, check us out regularly at 96.com.
