Raúl Jiménez suffered a skull fracture during the Premier League game between Wolves and Arsenal and has undergone surgery.

The Mexican forward was removed from the field after a disgusting head butt with Arsenal defender David Luiz.

Jiménez, 29, received oxygen and was rushed to hospital after the incident. His club has now confirmed that the forward underwent surgery for a skull fracture and is now in a comfortable condition.

“Raúl feels comfortable after an operation last night, which he underwent in a London hospital,” a statement read.

“Since then he has seen his partner Daniela and now he is resting. You will remain under observation for a few days while your recovery begins.

“The club asks that Raúl and his family now have a period of space and privacy, before further updates are provided in due course.”

Jiménez scored 17 goals for Wolves last season when Nuno Espírito Santo’s team finished seventh in the Premier League.
