A new deal in Liverpool threatens Mohamed Salah and Mani ... "skill and movement"
Liverpool FC announced on its Twitter account that it had signed a contract with Wolverhampton, Portuguese Diego Jota, for 41 million pounds on a five-year contract.
Jota (23 years) had caught the attention of observers with Wolverhampton, as he played 67 matches with him in the last two seasons, scored 16 goals, and is considered one of the young faces on which the Portuguese team builds its future, specifically in the offensive aspect, as he has the ability to dribble, taking advantage of his high skill .
Jota prefers to play on the left wing the position occupied by the Senegalese Sadio Mane, but the coaches who succeeded in training him see him as a distinguished player on the right wing, which is the position of the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, which makes him an important choice for German coach Jürgen Klopp.
If Jota wants to reserve a basic seat in the team, he is required to make a double effort to participate instead of the most important players in the "Reds" Salah and Mani, who are expected to find a threat of playing fewer minutes compared to previous seasons, especially as Klopp is looking for additional solutions that contribute to scoring goals.
Mohamed Salah and Mane had expressed their dissatisfaction when the coach Klopp replaced them on more than one occasion during the past seasons, which would anger them if the technical staff decided to place one of them on the bench in some matches to give Jota the opportunity to play.
Figures .. During his professional career, Jota participated in 213 matches with the Portuguese clubs Passoche de Ferreira and Porto, and Wolverhampton England, during which he scored 68 goals, and is considered one of the skillful players and has distinguished abilities in dribbling.
Jota became Liverpool's third deal this season after Greek left-back Costas Tsimikas (11 million pounds), and Thiago Alcantara, the star of Bayern Munich's midfield (20 million pounds).
