Javier Aguirre has presented several surprises in his last calls with the Mexican National Team. Among which stands out the return of Raúl, who has found a great scoring rhythm within Fulham, scoring key goals so that his team is in a good position within the Premier League.
Jiménez is having a great moment with the Cottagers. He scored a goal against Nottingham Forest, later against West Ham United and in the English League Cup (EFL Cup) he scored two penalties in the shootout. So far during his stay with Fulham he has scored 11 goals and one assist, three of which have been this season.

One reality is that the figure of the ‘Wolf of Tepeji’ was the most criticized in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Because it was mentioned that his level was not optimal to be Mexico’s forward in a World Cup tournament. Likewise, it increased when he was unable to score or assist in the tournament.
He had not managed to score since his match against Uzbekistan on September 10, 2023. Despite this, Javier Aguirre has chosen to give confidence to the ‘Cottagers’ attacker, calling for the friendlies on the FIFA date in October.
Raúl started Mauricio Pochettino’s match against the United States at the Akron Stadium as a starter. From the beginning the attacker looked forward with momentum, trying to damage the goal defended by Matt Turner. In a free kick, Raúl managed to score from the free kick, marking the first score for those led by Javier Aguirre. In the second half he ended up providing the assist to César ‘Chino’ Huerta.
