The UANL Tigres experienced a double failure this semester, starting in CONCACAF where they were eliminated in the quarterfinals by the current finalist Columbus Crew. Furthermore, in Liga MX they were eliminated in the same instance courtesy of the eternal rival, the Rayados de Monterrey. The board understands that it requires signings in all lines, starting with central defense, where in addition to the European objective, the goal is to sign a higher-level Mexican defender, with Gilberto Sepúlveda and César Montes being the two great options.

Tigres wants to strengthen its defense no matter what, and given the quota of places for foreigners is full, they are looking in the national market, reports David Medrano.
Gilberto ‘Tiba’ Sepúlveda and César Montes are the names that appear on the feline agenda.

More news about the transfer market
As we have informed you in 90min, the first national objective is ‘Tiba’ Sepúlveda. The Tigres’ idea is to wait for the central defender to refuse to renew with Chivas and that is when they will present him with a formal offer to close his signing, because beyond the failure of the herd, Gilberto’s level was outstanding, his best form in much time and in the team in the north of the country they consider that it could be a great duo for the international defender that they want to finalize in the summer.
If the objectives with ‘Tiba’ are not met as Tigres wishes, then the UANL team will move to try to convince César Montes, regardless of his past with Rayados de Monterrey. As other Liga MX teams understand it, the ‘puppy’ is a huge market opportunity and the feline team does not want to miss the opportunity to at least explore the option of the Mexican World Cup winner knowing their intentions of taking him back to Mexico in the summer.
