Wolverhampton resisted the auction between Juve and United for Raúl Jiménez

Raúl Jiménez recently renewed with Wolverhampton until 2024. The 29-year-old Mexican forward has been one of the proper names in the pandemic market, although the Wolves finally managed to resist. The Aztec recognizes that he lived a summer pending the news and that a transfer could take place. For Juventus it was one of the first options. Assuming the departure of Higuaín, rather desired, Paratici looked at the Mexican as the first option to accompany Cristiano Ronaldo. And there were approaches, but the economic situation of the clubs did not allow them to face an operation that was going to more than 60 million. Wolverhampton resisted the auction.

“One day I woke up and Juventus loved me, another day it was Manchester United. What I know is that there were rapprochements with the clubs, but an agreement was never reached. I am very happy at Wolverhampton. That play didn't happen this time. If it happens at some point then it will have to be the best for me, for the club and for the team I join, the player explained on TUDN.

Raúl Jiménez feels “important” at Wolverhampton. “The truth is that I am very happy at the club. It is never bad to be in a place where you are well but they know that I am not satisfied, I always try to give more,” he says. He had a great season last season with 27 goals in 55 games. It was one of the sensations of the Premier. This campaign is already in four goals in nine games.
