River Plate Explores Move for Tigres Forward Ángel Correa

Early inquiries focus on cost given his long, high‑paid Tigres deal.

Overview

  • River Plate has begun informal inquiries about signing Ángel Correa for the mid‑2026 window, with reports saying the club has asked about his salary.
  • Correa is under contract at Tigres through June 2030 on a wage reported near $4 million a year, which raises the bar for any agreement.
  • Any fee would also be significant after Tigres paid roughly $8–9 million to sign him from Atlético de Madrid, and some outlets say River may need to approach $10 million.
  • Coach Eduardo Coudet backs the pursuit as River evaluates veteran reinforcements for domestic goals and the Copa Sudamericana.
  • Inter Miami is also linked to the forward, and his run of about 43 games with 19 goals and 7 assists for Tigres helps explain the interest.
