Raul Jimenez is just one penalty away from breaking the Premier League record for the most penalties scored without a miss.
The Fulham striker successfully converted his first penalty of the season, leading his team to a 1-0 victory against Nottingham Forest.
The Mexico international has a perfect record, scoring all 11 of his penalty attempts in the Premier League.
Yaya Toure is the only other player with the same achievement. Both players have a 100 percent success rate after taking at least ten penalties. Chris Wood, a striker for Forest, is close behind with all eight of his penalties converted.
Chelsea’s Cole Palmer held the record in September 2024 but lost it after missing his next penalty that season.
Jimenez is now focused on reaching twelve penalties scored and claiming the record for himself, especially since he has missed only two of his 39 career penalty attempts.
1. Raúl Jiménez – 11
2. Yaya Toure – 11
3. Dimitar Berbatov – 9
=4. Chris Wood – 8
=4. Ruben Neves – 8
