Wolverhampton Wanderers are having a season to remember, flying high in the Premier League and looking forward to a trip to Wembley Stadium in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

One key component of the Wolves contingent is Raul Jimenez, who has been nothing short of sensational for Nuno Espirito Santo’s charges this season.

With 12 goals and seven assists from 30 Premier League games and three goals from five FA Cup games (Transfermarkt), the Mexico international has become a Molineux fan favourite.

Jimenez, on loan at Wolves from Benfica, has recently come back from international duty with El Tri, helping his nation to a 3-1 win over Chile and 4-2 victory against Paraguay in California.

Up next for Wolves is a trip to Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday.
