One of the most outstanding players that Tigres has is Samir De Souza. The Brazilian defender has done things well since his arrival in Mexican soccer and he is one of the immovable in central defense.

In recent days, information began to circulate about his possible departure from the university club, to which “Caetano” denied all the rumors, making it clear that he is “happy” with Tigres, where he has already spent a couple of seasons.

On the other hand, the 28-year-old defender pointed out that they will seek to fight for both tournaments, both in the playoffs and in the Concachampions semifinal against León, since it has not been decided to bet on only one, as was indicated at the time.

“We must look for everything possible, we have the possibility of looking for the League, if we have the possibility of looking for both (tournaments) we must have the mentality, we go step by step”he stressed.

Lastly, he highlighted the work being done by coach Robert Dante Siboldi, whom he referred to as the one that has helped them correct the defensive errors that have been occurring.
