Wolves striker Raul Jimenez continues to be linked with Manchester United.

The Daily Express says United are reportedly closing in on Jimenez, having watched Chelsea agree a contract with RB Leipzig's Timo Werner. Wolves are desperate to keep the Mexican but he is keen to land another big payday as his career steadily enters its twilight years.

The 29-year-old has mustered 22 goals and 10 assists this season in 44 appearances this term having been one of the deadliest marksmen in England in his three seasons at Molineux.

Having spent a year on loan from Benfica before making his move permanent last summer for around £34million, Jimenez has managed 39 goals and 18 assists in 88 appearances for the Midlands club.

Such form has piqued the attention of United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who is keen to strengthen his squad in the final third with the likes of Jadon Sancho and Jack Grealish other targets.
