Is his contract running really low or something so we can get him at a fire sale price? Otherwise Wolves are just going to do what Villa are doing over Grealish with us, and we don’t really need a centre forward that bad.

Plus Portuguese sources are famously spurious on this forum.

3 years remaining. This is just an assumption in an article that has been picked up as fact in others.

Seems like they've jumped the gun with that.

They’ve jumped more than just the gun.

Doubt it
I'd take him but let's be honest Wolves wouldn't sell their main striker for less than £70m and it would be making a lot of news by now.

It might be nonsense but the source RTP is probably as good as it gets in Portugal.

No I think they would.

£50m hes 29 and they’ll be wanting a return on the investment.

As much as he’s a very good striker I don’t see it happening.

Far too experienced to be paying much attention to these “sources” who have time and time again just peddled nonsense.

RTP is good in Portugal but they know nothing in England though. They might be spot on about Paulinho is going to Wolves but they know nothing where Jimenez is heading to.

They will want 50-60m easily for him. Much higher concerns all across the pitch for us.
Exactly, and are we seriously going to annoy Martial again? He’s proven his potential now, he is number one number nine.

A few months ago we were heavily linked with Jimenez. Lets see how this plays out

How does this make sense? He is quite good to be happy to get Ighalo's role, too expensive to be that type of player, and he ain't replacing Martial.

It's not the mid 90s anymore.
We don't just pick up key players from other teams on the cheeky.

I'd rather we went after Richarlison, even if he'd be much more expensive. If it's true that we're looking at Jimenez and also Grealish, I'd just combine that money and throw it at Everton.

Man Utd Sainz saying Jimenez is close to a move to Juve for €80m.

Maybe it’s a decoy rumour to give Dortmund a nudge on Sancho.

I know it’s not exactly the same positions, but it would still give Ole more options than he currently has

Surely you don't believe that, will be one of the worse decision we ever made.
Richarlison is not an elite talent and we already have alot of players around his age who are better quality. Getting the other two make us a better team on the short and long term.

This simply isn’t happening, Raul is very happy at Wolves, loads of his insta posts are aimed at us, plus given the fact he’s 29 and we’d be looking at a significant amount over the 32m we paid for him it’s clear that it’s just lazy journalism

His ambition will be bigger than Wolves. Be surprised if he’s still there next season.

He will be here mate, every year Neves is leaving yet every year he’s still here, Nuno is building something special at Wolves and you can tell by our players social media and the noises coming from them that they love it here, they spend days together as families and eat and socialise together, they also all live within 2 miles of the training ground so spend lots of downtime together, I’ve never known a squad like it in 31 years of watching the wolves, follow Raul on Instagram and tell me of it looks like a player about to leave

I’m heartbroken for you. We all know how it ends.

First off, you really think he would turn his nose up at united, to stay at WOLVES?? Second, he lives in Wolverhampton, need i say more. I'm impressed by what Mendes is doing at Wolves, and i certainly don't think Raul will be leaving for United, but come on, you are Wolverhampton FC, not Real Madrid.

I would say yes to Jimenez. But after Sancho, holding midfielder, attacking midfielder, centre back, left back and few better attackers. So no. Must be bs.

Holding midfielder will be next summer I reckon if the McTominay experiment doesn't work out next season
