Correa's Future: Definitive Goodbye or Unexpected Twist?
Ángel Correa’s farewell to Atlético de Madrid seemed imminent after his emotional goodbye at the Metropolitano. His destination pointed to Tigres UANL in Mexico, and there was even talk of a verbal agreement, although the Mexican club denied a pact with Atlético.
However, negotiations have suffered an unexpected slowdown, sowing doubts about his future. Correa, who has a contract with Atlético for one more season, was looking for a fresh start to have more prominence ahead of the next World Cup.
At the Rojiblanco club, both Simeone and the board value his contribution and would like him to continue contributing depth to the squad.
After the stagnation with Tigres became known, two Argentine clubs have shown interest in repatriating the player: Rosario Central, where a possible signing of Di María could pave the way, and River Plate, which had already shown interest previously. The main obstacle to a return to Argentina would be the cost of the transfer, which could be around 10 million euros.
