2.1.2. 2012-13 season
After participating in the 2012 Summer Olympics with the Mexico U23 team and the departure of Vicente Matías Vuoso, Jiménez secured a starting position in América's lineup for the Apertura 2012 tournament. He played as a second-striker alongside Christian Benítez in manager Miguel Herrera's 5-3-2 tactical scheme and was given the vacant number 9 shirt, switching from the number 47 he had worn previously.
Jiménez scored his first goal of the season on September 15 in a 2-0 victory over Santos Laguna at the Estadio Azteca. He continued his scoring two weeks later in a 1-1 draw against Monarcas Morelia. Jiménez received his first red card during América's 2-1 win over San Luis, which meant he missed El Súper Clásico against Guadalajara.

He scored again on September 13 in América's 1-2 defeat to Santos Laguna. On October 5, Jiménez scored a header and assisted Luis Gabriel Rey's goal in a 2-0 victory over Guadalajara. He finished the regular-phase of the Apertura with seven goals in twelve games. In the second-leg of the quarter-finals against Tigres UANL, Jiménez scored in a 1-1 draw at the Estadio Azteca on December 1, allowing América to advance on the away-goals rule despite a 2-2 aggregate score. América then won their semi-final matches against Toluca to reach the league final again, but they failed to win consecutive titles, losing both legs to León.
The Clausura 2014 tournament saw Jiménez make 17 appearances and score 8 goals. In the quarter-final match against Santos Laguna on April 30, Jiménez scored a hat-trick in a 5-3 win.

Jiménez made his debut for Atlético on August 16 in the final of the Ramón de Carranza Trophy pre-season tournament against Sampdoria, starting the match and being substituted in the 79th minute. Atlético won 2-0.

Overall, he made 28 appearances and scored 1 goal for the club.
2.3. S.L. Benfica
On August 9, 2015, Jiménez, who was anticipated to join West Ham United on a loan deal, reportedly missed his flight to London due to oversleeping and failed to appear for his medical. Reports later suggested that his agent, Jorge Mendes, had advised him to prioritize a move to Primeira Liga side Benfica instead.
On August 13, 2015, Jiménez officially joined Portuguese champions Benfica, signing a five-year contract. Benfica's initial expenditure to bring Jiménez to the club was 9.84 M EUR, which included various costs such as agent's fees and signing-on fees, in addition to the transfer fee itself. This amount reportedly included a 1.00 M EUR transfer fee and 3.00 M EUR to acquire 50% of his economic rights.
2.3.1. 2015-16 season
Jiménez scored his first goal for Benfica on August 29 against Moreirense, a header in the 75th minute that leveled the score at 1-1, with Benfica eventually winning the match 3-2.
On November 26, Jiménez scored his first two goals in the UEFA Champions League, finding the net in both halves as Benfica secured a 2-2 away draw against Astana. On March 9, 2016, he played a crucial role in helping Benfica reach the Champions League quarter-finals in a 2-1 away victory against Zenit Saint Petersburg. In the 85th minute, Jiménez's long-range shot was saved onto the crossbar by Yuri Lodygin, with the rebound falling to Nicolás Gaitán who scored to equalize the match at 1-1. On April 9, he came off the bench to score the winning goal in a 2-1 victory against Académica, which helped maintain Benfica's lead in the Primeira Liga. Four days later, due to the suspension of Jonas, Jiménez started the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final match against Bayern Munich. He scored the first goal in the 2-2 draw at the Estádio da Luz, but Benfica was eliminated from the competition with a 3-2 aggregate defeat.
On April 24, Jiménez scored another decisive league goal, this time the lone goal in a 1-0 victory over Rio Ave, extending Benfica's lead in the league. On May 15, Jiménez came on as a second-half substitute as Benfica were crowned league champions after defeating Nacional 4-1.

2.3.2. 2016-17 season
On July 21, 2016, Benfica announced that they had purchased the remaining 50% of Jiménez's economic rights for 12.00 M EUR. This acquisition led to widespread reports that the total value of his transfer to Benfica had reached approximately 22.00 M EUR, which would have made him the most expensive player in Portuguese football history and the most expensive Mexican player at that time. However, this total value remains unsubstantiated, as the initial 9.84 M EUR spent by Benfica in 2015 included various costs beyond just the transfer fee. In this season, he played in the Taça de Portugal final, which Benfica won 2-1 against Vitória de Guimarães.
2.3.3. 2017-18 season
Jiménez came off the bench to score Benfica's final goal in their 3-1 Super Cup win over Vitória de Guimarães. On December 17, Jiménez made his 100th appearance for Benfica across all competitions following a 5-1 away win over Tondela.

On June 12, 2018, Benfica loaned Raúl Jiménez to newly promoted Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers for a season, with a loan fee of 3.00 M EUR and a buyout clause of 38.00 M EUR. It was also reported on June 29 that he had extended his contract with Benfica until June 2021 before the loan move.
Jiménez made his unofficial debut for Wolves on July 22 in a semi-final match against VfL Bochum in the H-Hotels Cup, where he missed a penalty, breaking his perfect conversion rate. On August 11, Jiménez made his competitive debut for Wolves, scoring the equalizing goal in a 2-2 home draw against Everton on the opening weekend of the Premier League season. On September 16, Jiménez scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Burnley. On September 22, he provided an assist to João Moutinho to secure a 1-1 draw against Manchester United in the league. On September 29, he assisted Ivan Cavaleiro for the first goal in a 2-0 victory over Southampton. On October 6, Jiménez provided the assist for Matt Doherty's goal in his team's 1-0 away victory over Crystal Palace; this was his third assist of the season, meaning Jiménez was involved in a goal in each of the previous four league games for Wolves, assisting in the past three after scoring in the game prior to that. On November 11, he assisted Ivan Cavaleiro in a 1-1 draw against Arsenal, taking his season assist tally to four. Jiménez scored Wolves' first goal in a 2-1 win against Chelsea at Molineux on December 5. Jiménez scored the first goal in Wolves's 2-0 win over Bournemouth on December 15. This marked the first time Wolves had won three consecutive Premier League games and the first time they had won three in a row in the top flight of English football since 1980.
On March 10, 2019, with his goal for Wolves in their 1-1 draw against Chelsea, Jiménez tied Steven Fletcher as the Wolves player with the most Premier League goals scored in a single season, with twelve. Six days later, Jiménez scored the first goal for Wolverhampton in a 2-1 home victory over Manchester United to advance to the semi-final of the FA Cup; it was his third goal in the cup, and fifteenth of the season in all competitions.

On April 4, 2019, it was announced that Wolves had exercised their 38.00 M EUR option to sign Jiménez on a four-year contract, with the loan move becoming permanent on July 1. The signing was for a reported club-record £30 million (approximately 35.20 M EUR), surpassing Adama Traoré's £18 million transfer fee. Three days later, he scored his team's second goal in the FA Cup semi-final against Watford at Wembley Stadium, celebrating by putting on a Sin Cara wrestling mask; Wolves eventually lost the match 3-2. This celebration drew criticism, with former Watford player Luther Blissett labeling it "disrespectful".
He scored his 13th Premier League goal on April 27, heading in a Diogo Jota cross from close range to open the scoring in a 2-1 away win against Watford, becoming the Wolves player with the most goals scored in a single Premier League season. Jiménez scored 17 goals across all competitions in his first season and was voted the Wolves Players' Player of the Season on May 15.
On July 9, 2019, Nuno Espírito Santo excused Jiménez from attending the team's pre-season tour in China and potentially the club's Europa League debut to allow him to rest after his summer activity with the Mexico national team. On August 1, he scored his 50th and 51st goals in Europe after netting a brace against Crusaders in the second qualifying round of the 2019-20 UEFA Europa League.

On November 2, he scored his team's equalizer in the 76th minute in a 1-1 result against Arsenal. On November 28, he scored a goal and provided two assists in a 3-3 draw against Portuguese club Braga. As a result of his November performances, Jiménez was voted PFA Player of the Month.
On December 27, Jiménez, in scoring Wolves' second goal in their 3-2 home win over Manchester City, scored his eighth goal in the Premier League and 17th across all competitions, equaling his total from the previous season. On January 18, he scored a brace in a 3-2 victory over Southampton to become Wolves' all-time top scorer in the Premier League. On June 20, Jiménez broke his own record, set the previous season, for the most goals by a Wolves player in a single Premier League season after scoring a header in a 2-0 away victory over West Ham United. He ended the season with 27 goals in total and was part of the team as they reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League, but he missed a penalty in their elimination to eventual winners Sevilla. Despite this, he was voted Wolves' Player of the Season by both the fans and his teammates.
2.4.3. 2020-21 season
On September 14, Jiménez made his 100th appearance for Wolves in their first league game of the season, marking the occasion by scoring in the third minute of the match against Sheffield United. He was named Man of the Match for his performance in the team's 2-0 win. On October 3, it was announced that Jiménez had signed a four-year contract extension with Wolves, effectively ending rumors of a transfer.
On November 29, five minutes into Wolves' Premier League fixture against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, Jiménez was knocked unconscious after a clash of heads with David Luiz. Although Luiz continued to play for the rest of the first half with minor injuries, Jiménez had to be stretchered off and was immediately taken to a hospital for severe trauma, where he was eventually deemed conscious. It was confirmed the following morning that he had fractured his skull in the clash with Luiz and had required surgery soon after hospitalization, effectively sidelining him for the rest of the season. He underwent a successful operation for a fractured skull, and his recovery was closely monitored.
2.4.4. 2021-22 season
Jiménez returned to playing for Wolves in pre-season for the first time since his head injury, but it was announced that he would have to wear a head guard for the rest of his career. Jiménez scored for the first time since his career-threatening injury in his sixth Premier League appearance of the 2021-22 season, a 1-0 victory away to Southampton on September 26. Jiménez's second goal of the season, scored in a 2-1 win over Everton at Molineux on November 1, was also his fiftieth for the club in all competitions (as well as his fifth goal against Everton in five appearances).
Jiménez received his first red card of his Wolves career after collecting two yellow cards in less than a minute during the first half of a 1-0 defeat to Manchester City at the City of Manchester Stadium on December 11, resulting in a one-match suspension. He scored his fifth Premier League goal, and his first club goal of 2022, in Wolverhampton's 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur on February 13. He received the second red card of his Wolves career after receiving two yellow cards in a 3-2 defeat at home to Leeds United on March 18, 2022.
2.4.5. 2022-23 season
Jiménez made his debut appearance for Wolves in the 2022-23 Premier League, as a second-half substitute, in a 1-0 away defeat against Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on August 20, 2022.

Jiménez's first start for Wolves in the 2022-23 season came in a 2-1 victory over Preston North End at Molineux in the EFL Cup on August 23, 2022, in which he scored Wolves's first goal in the ninth minute.
