Carlos Galindo's Football Journey

Starting Young: His Youth Career

Carlos Galindo began his football journey at a young age. In 2015, he joined the youth academy of Club Atlas. This is where many young players learn the basics of professional football.

Later, he moved to a team in the third division called Mulos del Club Deportivo Oro. He played in 29 games for them, which helped him gain valuable experience. After that, Carlos continued to develop his skills with the Tigres UANL Reserves and Academy. He played for their Under-17 and Under-20 teams.

A Big Chance: Playing for Tigres

Carlos Galindo faced a tough time when he was released from the Atlas youth system. He even thought about giving up his dream of becoming a professional player. But then, an amazing opportunity came his way!

In 2020, both of the main goalkeepers for the Liga MX team Tigres UANL got sick. Also, their two Under-20 goalkeepers were injured. This meant Tigres needed an emergency replacement. On August 14, 2020, Carlos was signed to help out.

Just two days later, he made his big debut in the Liga MX! It was a huge moment for him, playing against Toluca. Even though his team lost 3–2, it was a dream come true for Carlos to play at such a high level.

Winning Big: His Achievements

Playing for a top team like Tigres UANL brought Carlos Galindo some great success. He was part of the team that won the CONCACAF Champions League in 2020. This is a very important tournament for football clubs in North and Central America, and winning it is a big achievement!
