Raúl Jiménez confessed how he changed his way of seeing football after his skull fracture
The Mexican Raúl Jiménez , front of the Wolverhampton Wanderers , assured that he now enjoys football more than ever after overcoming the serious skull injury he suffered in November 2020.
The Mexican player, who already knows what it is to score in this Premier League , was able to play again this summer after many months out due to a skull fracture that suffered in a clash with David Luiz at the Emirates Stadium.
“ I’m enjoying now more that never of soccer “, said the Aztec striker to the BBC. “Because it’s life and you never know when it’s going to end.”
“ During the preseason I tried not to go to the fouls, to the corners, as a precaution, but now I don’t think about it anymore “, Jiménez pointed out.
After a difficult start to the campaign, Jiménez scored his first official goal after injury (he made another in preseason) against Southampton and little by little he is making a good couple in attack with South Korean Hwang Hee-Chan.
