In addition to Hirving Lozano, Diego Lainez, and Orbelín Pineda, Raúl Jiménez is another of the players who may have a change of air for next season. The 31-year-old striker has been rumored to arrive in the Bundesliga, but that rumor has lost steam as the weeks have gone by. Now it is expected that the Aztec will return to Spanish soccer.

According to reports from talkSport, Wolverhampton would have no problem listening to offers for the Mexican striker. Jiménez's contract is valued at approximately $18 million dollars. On the other hand, the striker has a contract with the club until 2024, so the team that wishes to acquire him will have to negotiate with the English team.

Tecatito could be his new teammate

Spain is the most viable option for Raúl Jiménez but no formal offer from any team is on the table yet, however, there is a team from Spain's LaLiga that could be a good option for the Lobo de Tepeji, and due to the good performances of his compatriot, they could consider taking the former America player.

We are talking about Tecatito Corona, who arrived in January 2022 to Sevilla and who has given good performances under the orders of Lopetegui. Both players played in the Portuguese Primeira Liga and were rivals. Raúl played for Benfica and Tecatito for Porto. 

The reason why Jimenez is a good option for Sevilla is that the team lacks strikers and those who are there have not given their best performances, both Rafa Mir and En-Neysri have not been the solution, so the Wolverhampton player would be a very good option for the team.

Jiménez and his great time in England

Although Raúl Jiménez experienced in the Premier League one of the worst injuries of his career (skull fracture), those obstacles do not erase his good performance. The Mexican attacker scored 54 goals in the Wolverhampton shirt since he arrived in English soccer in 2018. Although it is not a big figure, his goals were very important for the institution.
