  "account": "Wolverhampton have confirmed that striker Raúl Jiménez will undergo surgery on Friday to address a medial collateral ligament injury in his left knee. The club's head of performance, Phil Hayward, revealed this on the team's official website. The injury, sustained against Everton four weeks ago, has yet to heal as anticipated. Following several assessments and consultations with knee specialists, Wolverhampton has decided to proceed with the surgery.\n\nHayward explained that minor injuries typically heal independently; however, maintaining this course of action risks an extended absence if surgery becomes inevitable. The procedure entails reattaching the ligament to the tibia, rather than reconstruction. This approach allows the club to exert greater influence over the recovery process. According to Hayward, the expected recovery period is around three months.\n\nThe statement was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence, with the original version available in Spanish here.",
