Raúl Jiménez is now 12 goals away of overcoming Carlos Vela, he scored a total of 78 times and his Mexican partner 89. Is it possible for him to reach this mark? Of course, because he signed a new contract until 2024, the team wanted to secure him in case a big Europe team tries to buy him.

After 39 years, the team could qualify for the Europa League 2019-20 mostly thanks to Jimenez performances that do not seem to stop improving. The team has now 3 wins in 5 matches and is above Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham in the actual Premier League.

The Mexican striker is the key player of a Premier League team that is growing and will keep on that way for a couple of years if the team stays with Nuno Espírito Santo. Adama Traoré, Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho, the stars of Wilverhampton are amazed with the striker right now.
