Mexican striker Raul Jimenez settled his club’s future before playing in the 2026 World Cup by signing for a second spell with English side Wolverhampton on Wednesday.
Jimenez joined Wolves on an initial two-year deal after leaving Fulham, where his contract expired at the end of this month.
Wolves have just been relegated from the Premier League and will therefore play in the second tier of the Championship.
Jimenez’s first spell at Wolves was between 2018 and 2023, after joining from Benfica. He scored 57 goals in 166 games.
“Bringing Raul back to Wolves is a special moment for everyone associated with this football club,” said Wolves Executive Chairman Nathan Shi.
Mexico opens the World Cup on Thursday with a match against South Africa.
