Raul Jimenez: Pundits react to transfer speculation
Wolves will face a difficult fight to keep hold of their best players at the end of the season as Manchester United and Liverpool circle. Nuno Espirito Santo's side have impressed this year as they sit sixth in the Premier League table.
United have been linked with making a move for Mexican striker Raul Jimenez, who has scored 22 goals across all competitions.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still looking for a permanent replacement for Romelu Lukaku after he joined Inter Milan last summer.
Meanwhile, Liverpool are weighing up an approach for Adama Traore after pulling out of negotiations for RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner.
But Wolves are just two points behind fifth-placed United in the Premier League table so it may not be considered a step forward for a player to move to Old Trafford.
Former Wolves goalkeeper Matt Murray reckons Nuno's side can stand a stronger chance of keeping hold of their key men if they qualify for the Champions League, which fifth play may bring given Manchester City's two-year ban.

“I think Nuno only has a year left on his contract," Murray told Sky Sports.
“I think if Wolves can get into the Champions League, I would be that much more confident.
"Especially with Jimenez, he is that bit older and everyone wants to play at the highest level.
“Everyone feels at home, the Wolves fans love them but that would be my concern with Nuno.
