Cruz Azul continues to work on its roster for the 2026 Apertura, but the possible sale of Ángel Correa could affect its goal of signing Juan Brunetta. The Argentine midfielder has been followed closely by Cruz Azul due to his technical skills, vision of the game, and ability to generate offensive football. In La Noria, they consider that Brunetta would fit perfectly into a team that seeks to maintain its protagonism and increase internal competition in the creation zone. However, when it seemed that the conditions could align for a possible negotiation, a new scenario began to modify the panorama. The financial and sporting situation of Tigres has forced the feline board to evaluate possible important sales during this market. In this context, the name of Ángel Correa has taken strength as a candidate to leave the institution. The Argentine forward is on the radar of River Plate, a club that would be willing to make a significant investment to confirm his incorporation. According to various reports, the Argentine team has even equalized the salary conditions that the champion of the world currently receives in the Liga MX. According to information from journalist Germán García Grova, Tigres would be willing to negotiate the departure of Correa for a figure close to $13 million. If the operation is confirmed, the felines would obtain the economic resources they seek to reinforce other positions without needing to release Juan Brunetta. This would represent a significant blow for the teams interested in the midfielder, especially for Cruz Azul, which saw in a possible economic need of Tigres an opportunity to try to negotiate his arrival. For now, the future of the Argentine remains uncertain. After the defeat in the Final of the Concacaf Champions Cup, the player himself acknowledged that there is still no definitive decision on his continuity and that he will first listen to the plans of the auriazul board before defining his next step. "I will rest a bit and see what the club wants. I will listen to them, I understand the situation of the club; so I will wait to see what they say and, from there, take a decision," he declared. Meanwhile, in La Noria, they continue to observe the development of events. The continuity of Joel Huiqui at the head of the sporting project is not in doubt, and the board is working calmly to build a roster capable of competing for new titles. However, the possible arrival of Juan Brunetta could depend to a great extent on what happens with Ángel Correa. If River Plate confirms the signing of the Argentine forward, Tigres would have fewer reasons to release one of its main figures, and the celestial dream of incorporating the talented midfielder could become more complicated.
