Overview
- On June 2, 2026 Jiménez told TUDN that he is focused on Mexico’s World Cup campaign but has not ruled out returning to Club América.
- Jiménez’s contract with Fulham expires after the tournament, and multiple outlets say he will decide his club future once Mexico’s World Cup run ends.
- Club América has made signing a high-profile centre-forward a priority for the Apertura 2026 and has identified Jiménez as its leading candidate after reports that Henry Martín is likely to leave.
- TV Azteca and other Mexican outlets report that Wolverhampton and Everton are also interested in signing Jiménez, creating competition from England for his signature.
- Fans and América officials will closely watch his post-World Cup decision because a return would give the club an experienced striker and change transfer plans for the Apertura 2026; Jiménez last played for América in an official match on August 9, 2014.
