Welcome to Wolves Raul Jimenez

Now to the important stuff.

Pronunciation.

Is the Mexican take on this name different to the basic Spanish?

Have we signed a Mr Himmynez, Mr Jimmynez, or a Mr Heeemeneth?

Raul is fine
 
Trust me - after listening to the appalling efforts of some people in this country to pronounce Neves correctly, I just gotta know the answer!
 
Really pleased with this signing - a good footballer. And it gives us an extra incentive to watch Mexico in the World Cup!

We used to pronounce the J as a R so it would sound like Riménéz, or just Raul as SLB mentioned.

Great signing by Wolves. Looking forward to getting a Jimenez Wolves kit. :Wub2:
 
Riminez?? :icon_lol:

One of my surnames is actually Neves!
 
Has to be another striker coming in - Mir will be third choice at best. And we'll be seeing a new #9
 
Did anyone do the Jimenez jimminent joke,or did jinky not know we were signing him?
