Scores brace in season finale Jiminez scored two goals in Sunday's win at Luton Town, bringing him up to seven in 24 appearances (18 starts) this past season.

Impact Jiminez's brace on the final day of the season brought his season total up to seven goals, his most in a Premier League season since he scored 17 with Wolves in the 2019-2020 campaign. It was still a disappointing season for him though since he missed chunks of the season with injuries, as he started just three Premier League matches in 2024. Injuries have defined his career ever since his brutal skull fracture in 2020, but he is clearly a very productive striker when he is healthy.

Impact Jimenez returned to the pitch Saturday after missing the past six matches with a hamstring injury. He did not do much in his 26 minutes off the bench -- one chance created and one attempted tackle -- but it was good to see him back in action after the lengthy injury absence.

Impact Jimenez won't be back for Saturday's clash but it seems he is right on the edge of being fit, and should be in for a role in the near future.

Impact Jimenez was forced off at halftime of the club's last match against Everton and is still not ready to compete, as he will be out once again Saturday. With such a quick turnaround into the game, it was always going to be a long shot for the forward to return, but now he will just hope for a speedy recovery and to be ready for play against Bournemouth next Saturday. He has unfortunately been a regular starter for the club this season, starting in all but five of the team's contests this campaign, so his absence will affect the team. While he is out, expect the likes of Rodrigo Muniz or Carlos Vinicius to take over his starting spot until Jimenez is back on the team sheet.

He should remain in the starting XI now that he is back from his ban, having started in 15 of the club's 20 matches this season while registering nine chances created, 12 tackles and 30 shots to go along with his five goals.
