Bull addresses rumours Jimenez could be leaving with Chelsea still keen on possible transfer deal
Wolves legend Steve Bull sees no reason for Raul Jimenez to leave the club, with Chelsea linked and Juventus keen.
Jimenez was in brilliant form for Wolves last season and is the main reason why they managed to challenge for a top four spot even until the final few games of the Premier League season.
His performances, and goals, have led to speculation that all the biggest clubs in the Premier League were interested in a transfer deal, and we may still be interested despite signing Timo Werner.
Bull, though, believes that Molineux is the best place for Jimenez at this stage of his career – with Europa League football already being taken in – and hopes a prolific frontman will stay put.
The Wolves icon told the Express and Star: “The Mexican striker continues to be the subject of lots of speculation, linking him with sides such as Manchester United and Juventus.
“It would take something special for him to leave, but why go when Jimenez has everything at Molineux?
“This is a great set-up, a great club, a great manager, and he does not need to go.
“Of course, he wants to win medals, but he can do that at Wolves. Sooner rather than later, too.
“At his age, you could look at it as a chance to earn a big move on big money, but I think we can match his ambitions, and finances are not a problem either.
“Having been involved with Wolves for 34 years, I can safely say the ambition of the club is huge. And it is not just Premier League football. It is Europe as well.
“We have not been in this situation for a long time, and Jimenez has started something, so why not finish it here?
“I think Wolves have the fire-power to keep players like that now. They can pull the stops out to keep him.”
