Since his arrival in Liga MX in the 2015-2016 season, André Pierre-Gignac has been a fundamental piece for Tigres, and thanks to his goals while Ricardo "Tuca" Ferretti was the team's coach, the Felinos were the most winning club of the past decade.

Gignac, who came from Olympique de Marseille, came to the MX League to win everything and with Tigres, he has won 3 goalscoring titles in Mexican soccer, plus the 3 MX League titles he won with the Felinos, which is why for a time he could be considered the best foreign player to have arrived in Mexico.


However, some time ago that situation began to change and his goal quota began to drop, and although in the Clausura 2022 the player once again won the scoring title, he only scored 11 goals in the regular season, when in his first tournaments he managed to score at least 13 goals per season in the regular season. For this reason, many Mexican soccer fans now consider that the player is no longer performing as he used to and after reviewing his earnings, probably the reason is precisely what he earns in Liga MX. 

The real and million-dollar reason why Gignac is no longer scoring as he used to at Tigres, and why he is close to retirement


According to the Mexican press, the Tigres player earns close to 10 million, 214 thousand dollars a year, an amount he has been earning for years, for which his critics point out that the player no longer has the same hunger for goals as before, since with what he has earned in Liga MX, plus his bonuses, André Pierre-Gignac is ready to retire knowing that his future is assured. 


For this reason, his critics point out that the player no longer performs as he used to because he knows that he can retire at any moment.
