19. Raul Jimenez (2020)
Mexican star Jimenez became one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier League with Wolves. He was his team’s fulcrum and main goal-getter before a career-threatening injury. The forward was playing against Arsenal when he crunched into David Luiz. Jimenez came off worse from the challenge because it left him with a fractured skull. Replays revealed the sickening thud of the impact.

Meanwhile, there were immediate concerns about Jimenez’s health. Fortunately, he underwent successful surgery and began the long road to recovery. Specialists also confirmed that he was able to return to soccer. Many feared that the head trauma would be life-threatening and prevent him from stepping onto the field again. But they said that he would be safe as long as the injury healed well.
