CRISTIANO RONALDO wants Manchester United target Raul Jimenez to join him at Juventus, according to reports.
The Wolves striker proved his potential after scoring 27 times across all competitions during the 2019/20 campaign.
Raul Jimenez has emerged as a target for Juventus
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Ronaldo has called for his club to make a move for Jimenez.
Juventus are on a mission to sign a new strike partner for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
And reports have heavily linked the Serie A giants to the 29-year-old Wolves forward.
Jimenez looks likely to leave Wolves after Nuno Espirito Santo’s side crashed out of the Europa League.
The Premier League club have reportedly set a price of £60million for the Mexican star.
He has been a huge hit for the club since arriving on loan from Benfica in 2018 before his move was made permanent for £30m last summer.
Ronaldo is keen for Jimenez to snub United’s interest to join him in Italy.
The Portuguese star had been tipped to leave the Turin club after a disappointing end to the season.
He had reportedly been offered a shock move to Spanish giants Barcelona.
But Spanish outlet AS quote one of his representatives who slammed the claims as “completely false”.
