Nuno believes that Jimenez will be back and perform as well as before

Jimenez's absence has put the Wolves through a difficult situation in the ongoing season.

After

Raul Jimenez

's head clash with David Luiz on 29 November, he went under surgery. This empowered the idea that maybe the 29-year-old will not be able to play until the end of the season.

Nuno Espirito Santo

,

Wolverhampton

coach, believes that Jimenez will be back again and will be the same person who was playing before this incident. He said: 

“The first moment was very tough, when you see that so close and with the silence in the stadium and you realise how serious the situation is.

“Raul is a lovely person. To see someone that you love so much like that, and then you start questioning: 'Is he going to be back as the same man?' Is he going to be able to continue doing what he does so good and enjoys so much?”

His absence has had its effort on the team, as the Wolves has managed to win only one match out of the 10 League matches held.

Fabio Silva

was worried not to be able to perform as well as Jimenez although Nuno knows this is not easy to act as good as Jimenez would.

“I will not be fair if I ask Fabio to do the same things. When Raul was the age of Fabio, he was playing his first game. OK, Fabio cost a lot of money, sure, but we believe that he’s going to become a fantastic player. He has that ability to instinctively know where the ball is going to be.”

Nuno said
