Not all the bets of the Monterrey team turn out as expected and the Frenchman is proof of this. Many questioned how much Florian Thauvin earned in Tigres and the doubts grew with the inactivity he had in the team due to injuries, which led him to become a free agent just a year and a half after his arrival in Mexico.
With the changes in the club for the Clausura 2023 in which they have started with two wins and a draw, Nicolás Ibáñez was the star hire in the already powerful feline offensive. The Argentine arrives with the scoring title of the last tournament on his shoulders and the world champion with France in 2018 ended up being the one sacrificed to be able to register the new striker in the tournament.
It was in view of the 2021 Opening that the European footballer surprised by signing with Tigres despite being linked to other larger teams. The formula was repeated after signing elements such as Andy Delort, Timothée Kolodziejczak and the now historic André-Pierre Gignac. Unfortunately the success that the striker has achieved has not been matched by his compatriots, they have not even come close to him.
How much did Florian Thauvin earn in Tigres?
According to information from various media, the French attacker had a salary of 6 million dollars a year, which made him the highest paid player in the entire Liga MX. After spending a year and a half in the northern institution, he would have received around 9 million dollars, however he struggled with injuries and this caused him to not have the expected performance.
Florian Thauvin could only play 2,063 minutes in 38 games to score eight goals and give five assists. He was injured for 68 days and missed 13 games, so during this time he generated just over 1 million dollars. If we relate his salary to the goals he produced, the Frenchman earned $600,000 for each one.
