Raul Jimenez admits he would not turn down the chance to join Barcelona or Real Madrid, with the Wolves striker continuing to generate transfer talk.
Having hit a career-best 22 goals in the 2019-20 campaign, the Mexico international has seen his stock rise considerably. The likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal are said to be mulling over bids to keep the 28-year-old in English football after seeing him master the Premier League.
Jimenez has, however, previously spent time in Spain with Atletico Madrid and admitted that a second spell in La Liga would appeal to him. With that in mind, any approach from Camp Nou or Santiago Bernabeu would be difficult to ignore.
Jimenez told ESPN:
“I find out [about transfer links] through social media. They have already put me at Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and every day comes out a new team that want me.
“I have to be calm. If they are talking about me, it is because I am doing things well; I would like to continue in England. I am happy, adapted and I like the idea [of staying in the Premier League].
“If you tell me that tomorrow an offer from Real Madrid or Barcelona comes, it is obvious that you do not let such an opportunity go, but if I stay here, I am fighting to qualify for the Champions League, for important things.
“Fighting for the title still seems difficult but we are in the Europe League round of 16. I think that I made the right decision to come here and I do not regret it.
“Leaving the doors open for anything is the most important thing. With Wolves we are fighting for the Champions League, I am happy. and I am an important player for the fans and for the team. I am fine, I do not close any doors, I am open to whatever comes but it does not stop me sleeping.”
