In the world of soccer, and especially in Mexican soccer, it is common for teams with greater economic power than others in Liga MX to be able to sign European players who make a difference in matches. And if there is one club that has applied this method to perfection, it is Tigres, the club led by Miguel Herrera that dominated soccer in Mexico over the past decade.

And it did so not only because the coach at that time was Ricardo "Tuca" Ferretti, a coach with whom the Felinos managed to win 5 Liga MX titles from 2011 to 2019. The club also decided to hire André Pierre-Gignac, a striker who came from Marseille as a great promise that, after a few years, became a reality for Tigres. 


The French striker has become one of the highest-scoring players to have ever played in Liga MX, having won 8 goalscoring titles in Aztec soccer, combining those obtained in Liga MX and international tournaments. And with this good experience, Tigres went for their second French foreigner, hoping for similar results, which is why they managed to sign Florian Thauvin

He does not perform as well as Gignac at Tigres, but Thauvin's earnings are enough to buy some of the most expensive collector's cars


However, the results obtained with Florian Thauvin have not been as spectacular as those obtained with Gignac, as the player has not scored as much as the Tigres striker, but has also not been able to become a reference on the field. Despite this, the player is paid almost 6 million dollars a year, a veritable fortune for a player who does not perform as well as Gignac. 


And yet with what the player earns, he could buy a Huracán EVO 2020, a vehicle that costs 350,000 dollars, or a Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder, which has a base price of 395,000 dollars, not bad for a player with a million-dollar salary in Liga MX but who has not been able to be a reference in his club.
