“Not a warning, a for sale sign” – Many Wolves fans react to key man’s price tag
Plenty of Wolves fans have responded on Twitter to the claims that Raul Jimenez has an £80m price tag.
According to reports from the Express, the Mexican forward has been valued at £80m by the club and Jeff Shi, which has got a rather mixed response from fans.
With clubs such as Real Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester United knocking at the door, Wolves have seemingly set their stall out early for what they deem acceptable for the prolific striker.
After the player was bought for a club-record £30m, Jimenez has gone from strength-to-strength as Wolves are having one of their best seasons in decades.
Is Raul Jimenez good enough for Real Madrid?
So far this campaign, the forward has managed to score 13 goals in 29 Premier League games and 22 in 44 in all competitions.
The fan account @WeAreWolves_com tweeted about the reports, to which many fans got in response, and it seems many don’t think that £80m will be enough to fight off interest.
Here are some of the replies below…
Top Quality leader of the line, every player has a price though. Will be very difficult to replace If he decided to go. Pretty sure Jeff & Nuno have alternatives identified for each & every one of our squad.

Tbh, I wouldn’t be massively shocked if someone matches that valuation!

That’s a fair price, probably could’ve gotten that in January. It’s not a warning, it’s a for-sale sign

With the coronavirus outbreak, it is still hard to see any movements on this for a decent chunk of time.
While professional football in England is set to return on April 30, there are no assurances that this will happen due to it being very hard to predict how the virus will impact the country and football.
