Update User Claim not Taking Effect. Why?

Question

I am using ASP.NET MVC 5.1 with Owin and Claims authentication.

After the user changes its email I need to update the users claims, so I tried in the controller:

SORRY, this is an ASP.NET CORE solution I also challenged the problem with claims, but the answer was easy to find.

To refresh your cookie, you can rely on the RefreshSignInAsync() function of the SignInManager;

private readonly UserManager _userManager;
    private readonly ApplicationDbContext _context;
    private readonly SignInManager _signInManager;

    public ApiClubController(UserManager userManager, SignInManager signInManager, ApplicationDbContext context)
    {
        _userManager = userManager;
        _context = context;
        _signInManager = signInManager;
    }

Inside your function:

//GET CURRENT USER
        var usr = await GetCurrentUserAsync();
        //OLD CLAIM
        var myClaims = await _userManager.GetClaimsAsync(usr);
        var oldClaim = myClaims.Where(o => o.Type.Equals("Club")).FirstOrDefault();
        if (oldClaim != null)
        {
            await _userManager.RemoveClaimAsync(usr, oldClaim);
        }

        //CREATE CLUB CLAIM
        var clubClaim = new Claim("Club", "" + id);
        await _userManager.AddClaimAsync(usr, clubClaim);

        //RESET USER COOKIE
        await _signInManager.RefreshSignInAsync(usr);

        //RETURN
        return Ok(company);;

NOTE: I'm using an API here, because I'm mixing up a lot with angular. If you update your identity with your API, you need to refresh your page in order to view things based on your claim
