The summer market has officially opened and with it the players are beginning to define their future for the next season. One of them is Raúl Jiménez, who has not had the best of years. Between injuries, loss of play and many doubts with Fulham, the Mexican is in key days to know where to continue his career and among the options, of course there is a return to America and today we tell you EXCLUSIVELY, what the outlook is like for the Wolf’s return to Coapa.
It is no secret that there have already been conversations between the footballer, today, still from Fulham, and the América board. Last October we reported in W DEPORTES about the first contact between both parties and Raúl’s willingness to return to Mexico to wear yellow again.
JARDINE GAVE THE OK
André Jardine already gave Raúl a thumbs up for his return, yes, with the role of substitute for Henry Martín, who is not only his scorer, but also captain and leader of the locker room.
Given the injury and poor performance of Illian Hernández, for the next cycle, America needs another forward and although the board plans to make important hires in this market, a 9 is not as much of a priority as it is in other positions.

Another theme in favor of Ame is the family. Jiménez’s entourage wants him back, closer, they talk about how his career in Europe was successful, that there is nothing left to prove and it is time to start enjoying and what better way to do it than at home, with his people and in the team from which it emerged.
And although everything seemed on track for the 9 to return to the club of his loves in 2024, in recent weeks the situation has changed and on the azulcrema path there are two problems that could delay the signing.
A LAST DANCE AT THE PREMIER OR GO TO TURKEY
Although Jiménez’s last campaign was not the best, in the last few days, the Mexican was finally able to get in tune and scored some goals that made the enthusiasm within Fulham resurface and they have hope that the forward I can be that of Wolverhampton again.
Furthermore, in the Cottagers team, some departures are expected and it would be important to keep some forward midfield pieces, including Raúl.
But in addition, sources to W DEPORTES have confirmed that from Turkey, two clubs have asked about Jiménez’s situation and the possibilities of taking him for the next season. One of them is Besiktas, which has already been interested in him several times and the other, Trabzonsport, who will play European competitions next year.
The ball is in Raúl’s side and in the coming days, before he has to report for pre-season with Fulham, he will have to make a decision. In Coapa they await it with open arms or a Last Dance in elite soccer.
