Cristiano Ronaldo 'keen for Juventus to sign Raul Jimenez'

Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly urged Juventus to move for Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez during this summer's transfer window.

New Old Lady boss Andrea Pirlo is allegedly keen to bring a new centre-forward to the club ahead of the 2020-21 campaign, and Jimenez has been strongly linked with the Italian champions in recent weeks.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Ronaldo believes that the Mexico international would be the ideal player to lead the line next term.

Jimenez enjoyed an excellent 2019-20 season for Wolves, scoring 27 times and registering 10 assists in 55 appearances in all competitions.

The 29-year-old, who has also been linked with Manchester United, has a contract at Molineux until June 2023, placing his English side in a strong position when it comes to any potential negotiations.

A recent report claimed that Wolves value the Mexican in the region of £70m.
