2022 World Cup Champion Ángel Correa reportedly set to join Liga MX's Tigres after Club World Cup

FIFA Club World Cup

Atletico Madrid

Botafogo RJ

<p>Argentine forward Ángel Correa is set to leave Atlético de Madrid and join Tigres ahead of the 2025 Apertura season, according to a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DLD56rIotRM/?igsh=MWxoODR2OWo2NjMyOA%3D%3D" target="_blank">report from Fabrizio Romano</a>.</p><p>The 2022 World Cup winner, 30, is closing out an eight-year stint with Atlético, where racked up 466 appearances, 88 goals, and 65 assists. Currently competing in the FIFA Club World Cup with the Spanish side, Correa could still add to those numbers - but his time in the red-and-white shirt is nearing its end.</p><p></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Per Romano, Correa and Tigres reached a verbal agreement weeks ago on a five-year contract. However, final negotiations between the two clubs took longer than expected. Tigres reportedly made a definitive push in recent days, capitalizing on Atlético’s presence in North America for the Club World Cup.</p><p>The final offer is believed to include a fixed fee in the range of $7-8 million, with performance-related add-ons bringing the total package to under $10 million.</p><p>Correa already bid farewell to Atlético fans on Instagram following the club’s last LaLiga match.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Ángel Correa would become the fourth World Cup champion to wear Tigres colors in the club’s 65-year history.</p><p>The list began with José Eduardo Américo, better known as “Edú,” who played alongside Pelé at Santos FC and was part of Brazil’s 1970 World Cup-winning squad. The three-time World Cup participant joined Tigres for the 1979-80 and 1980-81 seasons, scoring four goals during his stint.</p><p>The second was Argentine midfielder Sergio Almirón, a standout with Newell’s Old Boys and a member of Argentina’s title-winning team in Mexico 1986. He had a brief spell with Tigres in 1989.</p><p>The most recent before Correa was French winger Florian Thauvin, who joined the club in 2021 during the Miguel Herrera era. Despite arriving with high expectations after being part of France’s 2018 World Cup-winning squad in Russia, Thauvin never managed to make a lasting impact in Liga MX.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Tigres will kick off their Apertura 2025 season on July 19, when they take on FC Juárez. Their original opener against Chivas, scheduled for Matchday 1, has been postponed to Sept. 17 due to ongoing renovations at Estadio Akron in preparation for the 2026 World Cup.</p>
