Club América are exploring a potential move to bring Fulham striker Raúl Jiménez back to the club after the 2026 World Cup, sources say. While midfield reinforcements remain the short-term priority, the veteran forward is emerging as a longer-term target. Jiménez started his career with the club and scored 36 goals in 96 league appearances for the club between 2011 and 2014.

Raúl Jiménez did not hold back after Mexico’s scoreless draw with Uruguay, calling out the Torreón crowd for repeatedly booing goalkeeper Raúl “Tala” Rangel and the rest of the squad. The Fulham striker said the atmosphere left the team “sad,” underscoring the growing disconnect between El Tri and its supporters.

El Tri closed the September FIFA window with a 0-0 draw against Japan and a dramatic 2-2 tie with South Korea.
