Younger option would be better IMO.
Anyone can score lots of goals in Germany, but it said more about the standing of Bayern. Outside of German players or players based in Germany, they can only attract players the big teams in England, Spain and Italy are not interested in them. They only got Alphonso Davies because Premier League teams 10 million was too expensive for an MLS player so rejected his agent.
That Mexican is not even close to Robert.
Jimenez is also over 30 😂
Let me tell it straight up. There was never ever in their entire playing career, was Raul Jiminez at Lewandowski’s level, not even close.
Regardless of his age, he could be 21, it still wouldn’t be an upgrade.
Just look at Jiminez’s performance with Mexico at the World Cup Qualifiers, he only scored 3 goals in 14 games and all of them were penalties against teams in the lower half of the standings. Jiminez at his current state is miles behind the other options that Bayern can choose from.
That transfer would make no sense which means Brazzo is probably all over it.
To be honest Raul Jimenez will do much more than Lewandoski, because Raul has already played in the hardest legue, and Lewandoski hasn’t I would like to see Raul in Germany because he is going to make much more better than Lewandoski, and I would like Lewandoski try to play in the premier league so that he can see that’s it’s harder over there so that everyone can see that Lewandoski isn’t nothing compared to Raul
What a stupid title! Jimenez is not at the level of Choupo-Moting let alone Lewy. Choupo-Moting this season scored 16 BL goals and 4 CL goals. Jimenez is an average players who plays for a mid table club who gets plenty of red cards.
A spanish media outlet reporting on a german league transfer… like anybody would ever believe what they have to say
F%$@ outta here. These clowns man🤣
No, Jimenez won't be a "good" fit but I'm sure Pulisic will be 🙄🤦🏽♂️
When the Americans are on, it should be called Bias FC
What we doing with a trash player.
i personally think jimenez would fit this team well and and do a good job picking up his form but a club like bayern needs the the best theres way better options even a 37 year old ronaldo would be a better option than jimenez
ESPN FC you all crack me up! You got to do a story on a rumor I thought up: Stevie Nichol and Craig Burley are coming back from retirement as player coaches for Man U!
Raul was at Lewandowskis level before his head injury. The man scored 40 goals in the premier league with a mid table team in a span of 3 seasons. Is he good now? Absolutely not but people need to stop saying he was never near Lewandowski because he was scoring more goals in one season in a harder league than Lewi.
This gotta be an insult to lewi cause there no wayy!! There levels apart !
Relax it bundesliga
Not even 2 years ago, you guys are crazy! He was being talked as a backup to Suarez at Barca 2 years ago. No way
This is the most delusional rumour I have ever heard.
Farmers league, he won't shine there anyway even if he does better than lewatapski
RJ9 Plays in the Premier League. Like you haven't heard of Raul. Put the Haterade down.
