LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)-Fulham have reportedly signed Wolves’ Raul Jimenez for an estimated sum of £5.5 million.
The forward agreed to a two-year contract that will keep him with the team through the summer of 2025, with a club option for an additional 12 months.
The Mexican player, who spent the previous five seasons with Wolves and scored 57 goals in 166 outings, will now play for Craven Cottage.
“It’s really important for me to get here,” Jimenez said on the club website after signing. For the squad, which is among the most recognizable in the Premier League, I’ll attempt to give it my all.

Sporting director Tony Khan added: “Raul will be familiar to Fulham supporters as he’s had great experience playing in the Premier League, and in international football with Mexico.
Aleksandar Mitrovic, a striker for the Cottagers who scored 14 Premier League goals last season while serving an eight-match suspension for assaulting referee Chris Kavanagh during the FA Cup defeat to Manchester United, is still the subject of ongoing speculation over his future.
