It has been reported that the Old Gold have begun negotiations to sign Jota from Al-Ittihad, less than a year after he left Celtic for £25 million. Jota had a tough first season in Saudi Arabia despite scoring an amazing 28 goals and 26 goals in 83 games for the Bhoys.
The former Portugal Under-21 international joined Al-Ittihad with the expectation of developing into a major player, but things took a disastrous turn very fast.
Al-Ittihad had a registration nightmare as a result of signing too many foreign players in order to meet Saudi Pro League regulations. Jota was ultimately the one sacrificed, which significantly reduced his involvement at the club.
Even though the 25-year-old was eventually registered for the second half of the campaign, the damage had already been done following a difficult first few months.
At least according to reports from the French magazine Sports Zone. Al-Ittihad and Jota are rumored to wish to part ways this summer, and Sporting Lisbon and Wolves are reportedly interested. Super agent Jorge Mendes is rumored to be eager to assist his client in securing a loan move to Molineux. Mendes has an excellent rapport with the Wolves leadership.
Over the years, Mendes has had a significant role in a number of important Wanderers transactions. With the assistance of the Portuguese agent, individuals such as Pedro Neto, Diogo Jota, Ruben Neves, and Matheus Nunes have already joined. Jota, who had competition for playing time from players like as Abderrazak Hamdallah, Romarinho, Igor Coronado, and Karim Benzema, scored four goals in 16 league games in 2023–2024.
