Tigres had been the best team in Liga MX until before matchday 4. The team had scored seven points out of a possible nine and was emerging as the favorite to win the title this season. However, the last two weeks have left some doubts and now they lost the lead. The team already has all its reinforcements, but they had to cut striker Florian Thauvin to hire him.
Florian Thauvin arrived at Tigres in 2021 as the bomb signing of Liga MX. The striker arrived as a World Champion with France, so it was expected that he would be the next great striker for the Monterrey team. However, a year later the striker never managed to shine and now his contract has been terminated. The striker did not take a week to get a new team and is close to signing with a European team.

Now Tigres will seek to rebuild their path by visiting Cruz Azul on matchday 5. Fortunately for this team they will be able to count on their three reinforcements, Fernando Gorriarán, Nicolás Ibáñez and Diego Lainez. For his part, the French striker Thauvin, will be undergoing medical tests in Europe to sign with his new team and thus try to recover the level that at one point led him to have a value of 17 million euros.
Thauvin’s new team
The French forward had experience in different European teams. Thauvin started his career in French football but it wasn’t until he signed with Lille that he began to shine. He quickly caught up with Marseille, and started playing for them. Newcastle were also interested in the striker and ended up buying him but leaving him on loan for two years with the French team. After his time in France, Tigres signed him, but ended up failing. Now Thauvin would already have a new contract with Udinese of Italy. It will be a matter of time before his signing is announced.
