Raul Jiminez

Wolves manager, Nuno Espirito Santo says Raul Jimenez is back in training and “moving in the right direction” after fracturing his skull last year.

The Mexico international striker required surgery following a clash of heads with David Luiz during the win at Arsenal on November 29.

Since then, Wolves have taken just 13 points from a possible 42 in the Premier League.

“He (Jimenez) is training, he has been able to integrate into some of the training sessions and he is improving and doing well,” Nuno said.

“We have to be very careful and follow the protocols but keep positive because he is doing well.

“We are delighted, but know it’ll take time. He is going in the right direction.

“He will keep improving his fitness, follow the protocols and do consultations with the neurosurgeon. It requires patience but it’s moving in the right direction.”
