Tigres UANL continues to strengthen its squad for the Apertura 2025 tournament with the incorporation of left back Marco Farfán, from FC Dallas of Major League Soccer (MLS). The 26-year-old player, who has experience with the United States national team, becomes the fourth confirmed reinforcement for the team from Monterrey.
