Overview

  • Tigres remains committed to completing a transfer for Honduras international Joseph Rosales from Minnesota United despite ongoing contractual hurdles and tight deadlines.
  • After scouting Alejandro Gómez as a domestic Plan B, the club has placed his potential move on hold pending resolution of the Rosales deal.
  • Signing Rosales would secure a left-footed defender slot and prevent the use of a foreign roster spot on a defensive midfielder.
  • The push for defensive reinforcements addresses the losses of Jesús Angulo to injury and Rafael Carioca’s summer exit.
  • Tigres has supplemented its Apertura 2025 preparations by adding Ángel Correa and loaning out young prospects to maintain squad balance under Liga MX’s foreign-player limits.
