Wolves striker Raul: Liverpool champions-elect - thanks to Klopp

Wolves striker Raul Jimenez feels Liverpool are the Premier League's champions-elect.

The Reds are clear at the top of the table by eight points.

Asked if Liverpool will win the title, Raul told Marca: "Right now, I think so.

"Just 15 games have gone and you cannot take a team as victorious, but playing the way they are playing, they are on track. In addition, they are having, as they say in Mexico, the fate of the champion, winning games at the last minute, and getting the results like this, makes you think they'll win the championship."

He was also asked about Reds manager Jurgen Klopp.

Raul added: "Yes, his style, his personality, what he demonstrates and feels on the field, not caring about anything, celebrating the goals as he should celebrate. It is always necessary to transmit to your players celebrating with them, in your own way, as you feel it."
