Overview
- Wolverhampton Wanderers confirmed Raul Jimenez has re-signed with the club as their second capture of the summer, with the announcement following talks between the player and club leaders.
- Chairman Nathan Shi played a leading role in persuading Jimenez and his family to agree the move, according to club interviews with the manager and the player.
- Local reporting says a three-person Wolves delegation travelled to Mexico to finish the contract, carry out the medical and manage media work while the player was with the national team.
- Reports indicate Jimenez turned down offers from Major League Soccer and a higher-paying Premier League proposal to join Wolves, and Adam Armstrong has reportedly vacated the no.9 shirt for him.
- Fans have greeted the signing enthusiastically and the club frames it as a quality-driven addition that pairs Jimenez’s past Premier League form and leadership with Wolves’ wider rebuild and promotion ambitions.
