It's not money, its revealed why Club America didn't sign Raul Jimenez this season
Santiago Banos said he wanted Raul Jimenez but the manager will not sign him this season
Club America made an effort in the current transfer market to try to secure the arrival of one of its great historical talents. It was precisely Raul Jimenez, who is not doing well at Wolverhampton after the arrival of Julen Lopetegui and according to KeryNews, Club America was an option.
In the current transfer market, the reality is that the sporting president, Santiago Banos, has left much to be desired with the movements confirmed by the team. Luis Malagon and Israel Reyes have been the only players who have arrived in this 2023 and are replacements for players who have left. Now, the reason why Raul did not end up arriving is revealed.

The Coapa team had several players on the radar, but they did not end up arriving because they were asking for industrial amounts of wages. Something that the Club was not willing to give up at this time. Such is the case of Diego Lainez, as Santiago Banos confessed. However, Raul's case does not go that way.
Why didn't Raul Jimenez end up arriving?
The reality is that the Mexican striker did not end up signing with the Coapa team because Club America considers that the player would be in a moment of rediscovering his best version. According to Santiago Banos, Jimenez's current level is improving, but he needs more development. Thus, they would wait until the end of the season to try to sign him or transfer him.
