Correa Draws Inter Miami Interest After Standout Tigres Season
Ángel Correa’s impressive campaign with Tigres has pushed him back into the international spotlight, with Inter Miami now monitoring the Argentine forward as they plan ambitious squad upgrades ahead of the 2026 MLS season.
The 30 year old has been a key figure in Monterrey, combining consistency with end product as Tigres remained competitive across Liga MX. His performances have not only reinforced his status within the league but also attracted attention from outside Mexico, including from the reigning MLS Cup champions.
Correa finished the season with eight goals and four assists, numbers that underline his influence in decisive moments. His movement between the lines and ability to operate across the front line gave Tigres tactical flexibility and added sharpness in the final third.
The timing of the interest is significant. Inter Miami are already looking beyond the short term, assessing experienced players who can elevate the squad as the club builds toward 2026. Correa’s profile fits that strategy, offering pedigree, versatility, and international experience.
There is also a familiar narrative element. A potential reunion with Lionel Messi adds intrigue, given their long standing connection with the Argentina national team. Correa has earned 28 caps and scored three international goals, often trusted in high pressure situations.
Despite the speculation, Tigres remain firmly in control. Correa is under contract until 2030 and earns close to four million dollars per year, placing him among Liga MX’s top earners. Those terms present a significant hurdle for any MLS move, particularly within the league’s roster and salary regulations.
From Tigres’ perspective, there has been no disruption. The forward has remained settled, focused, and influential, with his form reflecting a player comfortable in his environment and clear in his role.
Any progress would likely hinge on late negotiations and a substantial financial proposal. Without that, Tigres have little incentive to engage, especially with Correa still central to their sporting plans.
For now, Inter Miami’s interest serves as recognition of Correa’s resurgence. Whether it evolves into a concrete move or remains strategic monitoring, the message is clear. His performances in Liga MX have restored his value, and his next chapter, wherever it unfolds, will carry weight.
