'You're a wolf now' - Wolves fans want to see Jimenez signed permanently

By Jay Williams

Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez took his tally to eight goals for the season when he scored against Tottenham Hotspur yesterday.

Jimenez’s strike put Wolves 2-1 up against Tottenham at Wembley in a game they would go on to win 3-1.

The Mexico international, who also scored in the home fixture against Spurs, now has eight goals in 24 games.

Jimenez is currently on loan from Benfica but Wolves fans are already urging the club to snap him up on a permanent basis.

Given his height and physical stature, Jimenez causes problems for opposition defenders and allows the attacking midfielders to link up when moving forward.

Wolves have an option to buy Jiemenz outright but both the club and the player are mulling over this decision.

After he netted yet another goal against Tottenham, though, many Wolves fans want this deal wrapped up imminently.

Here are some opinions from Wolves fans on social media concerning Jimenez’s contract situation.
