We are days away from the start of the 2024 Apertura tournament, and the information does not stop at the team of Tigers. Veljko Paunovic’s team showed interesting things last Sunday, when they faced the Águilas del América for the Supercopa MX.
Unfortunately, for the auriazul squad, America ended up turning the tables on them and doubts have not been long in coming. The Tigres leadership is handling this transfer market with great caution. Just this week they made their first signing, it is the Mexican goalkeeper Fernando Tapia, who at twenty-three years of age, arrives at Tigres to fight for the position of none other than Nahuel Guzmán Palomeque.
It should be noted that the Argentine goalkeeper will not be able to see action in the first matches, due to his suspension. Carlos Felipe Rodríguez leaves many doubts, so Tapia’s debut could take place as of the second matchday. Could we be witnessing the beginning of the end of the Nahuel Guzmán era? Will the arrival of this youngster imply the non-renewal of Guzmán’s contract after 2025?
