Raul Jimenez has no reason to leave Wolves amid transfer interest from Manchester United, Arsenal and Real Madrid.
That’s the view of Wolverhampton Wanderers legend Steve Bull, who believes the Mexico international can win silverware at Molineux.
Jimenez, who has scored 13 goals and provided six assists in 28 Premier League starts this season, insists he’s ‘happy’ at the West Midlands club and won’t seek an exit even if Nuno Espirito Santo’s side fail to qualify for the Champions League.
And Wolves hero Bull, who scored more than 300 goals in 13 seasons in Wolverhampton, expects Jimenez to stay true to his word.

‘I cannot see any reason why he would want to leave,’ Bull told the Shropshire Star.
‘Jimenez can score goals for fun as he has the talent, the work-rate and – most importantly – the supply.
‘It is not as if he has running his socks off, doing a lot of work for the team, and getting nothing in return.
‘He gets chances in every single game he plays, so no wonder he is happy being here.
‘Real Madrid, of course, have been linked with Jimenez in the Spanish press.
‘And even though he has come out and outlined his commitment to Wolves, such speculation is likely to continue over the next few months.
‘It shows how far we have come when our players are being associated with such teams.
‘The ultimate question, though, is whether Jimenez can fulfil his ambitions – winning silverware – at Wolves?
‘For me at least, the answer to that is an emphatic yes.’
