LONDON: Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to confirm the permanent signing of Raul Jimenez from Benfica for a club-record fee of £30 million (RM161 million), British media reported on Thursday.
The 27-year-old striker has scored 15 goals in 37 appearances since joining Wolves on a season-long loan in June 2018.
Sky Sports reported Jimenez had agreed personal terms on a four-year deal, with the fee surpassing the £18 million (RM96 million) Wolves paid for Adama Traore last August.
Mexico international Jimenez has helped Wolves reach seventh in the Premier League and an FA Cup semi-final place against Watford on Sunday.
