Raúl Jiménez return to Wolverhampton Wanderers

Overview

Mexican striker Raúl Jiménez has returned to Wolverhampton Wanderers for the 2026-27 season.

During his return, Jiménez made his first appearance for the club in three years as a substitute in a Carabao Cup first-round match against Port Vale. The match resulted in a 3-0 victory for Wolves. Jiménez expressed his intention to act as a leader on and off the pitch to help the club.

Following his return to the pitch, Jiménez and his wife, Daniela Basso, distributed custom black scarves to supporters in the South Bank of Molineux Stadium. The scarves feature the club crest and the phrase ‘Sí, señor’, a chant dedicated to the player. Jiménez described the affection from the fans as ‘very special’ to his family.

Jiménez recently marked his return to scoring for the club by converting a penalty in stoppage time to secure a 2-2 draw against Blackburn Rovers in the Championship. Entering the match in the 59th minute, he helped stabilize the team after Blackburn had overturned an early lead. The goal, scored in the 90+3' minute following a handball in the box, was his first for the club in 1,311 days. This performance follows his recent stint with Fulham and his participation in the 2026 World Cup.
