Raúl Jiménez has been linked to some top European teams during the last weeks. The Mexican attacker is having a great season so, after scoring four goals on eight appearances for Wolverhampton and two more for his national team on the last FIFA international break of the year.

As the player himself recognized, there are some teams who have been looking at him and could sign him. Manchester United and Juventus are just two of those who put an eye on the forward. But if Jiménez finally decides to leave after an offer of a top team, Wolves know who they are going to look for.


After the great experience with Jiménez, the English side could look for another Mexican as well and one of those who is in their carpet, according to international press, is Alan Pulido. The striker from Sporting Kansas City is having a great moment at the MLS club, but would like to play in Europe once again.


First, a team should take Jiménez out of Wolves. That should meen a huge investment, as he has a reported value of $40 million. After that, the club could look to replace him with Pulido, aged 29 and who played in Europe just two years (at APO Levadiakos and Olympiakos, both of Greece).
