Zinedine Zidane 'wants to bring Raul Jimenez to Real Madrid'

Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez emerges as a summer target for Real Madrid, according to a report.

Real Madrid are reportedly weighing up a summer move for Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez.

The 28-year-old scored 17 times while on loan at Wolves during the 2018-19 campaign before completing a permanent move from Benfica ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.

The Mexico international has again been in impressive form for Nuno Espirito Santo's side this term, scoring 22 times in 44 appearances in all competitions, in addition to providing 10 assists.

Manchester United have recently been linked with a move for the forward, and it has been suggested that Wolves are open to the possibility of selling him during this summer's transfer window.

According to reports in Spain, Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane believes that Jimenez would be the ideal player to complement Karim Benzema in the final third and is keen on a summer deal.

The Mexican turned out for Atletico Madrid during the 2014-15 campaign but only managed one goal in 27 appearances for the capital giants during a disappointing spell.
