Gignac to stay with Tigres after signing new deal with Liga MX giants

Tigres' French striker Andre-Pierre Gignac will stay put in Liga MX, having signed a new contract with the club on Wednesday.

Gignac, 32, arrived at the Monterrey club in 2015 and helped them to an appearance in that year's Copa Libertadores final, where they lost out 3-0 on aggregate to River Plate.

He has gone on to score 94 goals in 161 games in all competitions, as he nears Tomas Boy's club-record 102, while Tigres have lifted seven major titles during his stay.
