Wolverhampton are only one point away of the Champions League positions and Jiménez was probably on his best moment of his career. He was involved in talks with Manchester United and Juventus, but since his clash with David Luiz in the match against Arsenal his opportunities are reducing.

Gerardo Martino was about to call him again for the Mexico National Team, he had a secure spot on the squad. But now that he is injured, that place could be occupied by Chicarito Hernández. The LA Galaxy striker did not have his best season but he is a strong name that knows how the wear Mexico’s uniform.

Last time he played for the National Team was in 2018 and since then, the coach decided to give the chance to new young players. But these young players can perform well if they play alongside with experienced players like Raul Jiménez. That’s why fans started to believe that Chicharito could take that role.

This opportunity is huge for the former Real Madrid and Manchester United striker. This is the chance he needed to demonstrate that he does not need to retire from football. This could set him again on the radar of an international team, or maybe a team from Liga MX like Chivas.
