Raul shirt a Mexican rave

- by DAVE ARMITAGE

RAUL JIMENEZ has revealed how he is taking care of business back home in Mexico.

When Wolves wanted a third kit, they designed one like their £30m striker wears for his country.

Jimenez is a cult figure at home with over three million social media followers.

And the tills are ringing thanks to Mexican fans buying the new strip.

He scored his first goal in the green in Thursday’s 2-1 Europa League win at

Slovan Bratislava and said: “The green shirt represents Mexico so it made it special for me – even more when I scored.

“I love this shirt and I have already been to the club store to buy some for my family.

“I had to buy a lot – maybe a dozen of them for my family and friends.

“They are already selling well in Mexico.

“I have a lot of fans there and they are supporting Wolves now.”
