# Jenni Hermoso departs Tigres Femenil > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/jenni-hermoso-potential-atletico-move > Updated: 2026-08-15T18:16:14.000Z. Sources: 24. Developments: 3. In late July 2026, media reports highlighted speculation that 36‑year‑old Spanish forward Jenni Hermoso might return to Atlético Madrid. At the time she was under contract with Mexican side Tigres UANL until the end of 2026 and had been granted a special leave to commentate the 2023 Men's World Cup. Her past success with Atlético, including a league title and the Pichichi award, fueled interest ahead of the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil. By mid-August 2026, Hermoso’s departure from Mexico was formalized. She and Tigres Femenil reached a mutual agreement to rescind the remaining six months of her contract, making her a free agent. During her tenure with the Amazonas, which began in January 2024, she appeared in 44 matches, scored 10 goals, and helped the team secure both the Liga MX Femenil title and the Campeón de Campeonas trophy. In a farewell message, Hermoso expressed deep gratitude for her time in Mexico, noting that the country provided her with peace and stating that her experience with Tigres was “the best that could have happened to me in life.” She also noted in a farewell video that “a part of my life stays here in Mexico and here in Tigres.” While her next move has not been officially confirmed, reports continue to identify Atlético Madrid as her most probable destination for a return to Spanish football. ## Claims - Jennifer Hermoso stated that growing up means learning how to say goodbye.
