    I'm pretty sure the article translates to the club having told Benfica they plan to exercise the option, which we knew already, rather than Jota telling them he's planning on staying. The bit about him not being in the manager's plans is the bigger point.

    My hopes are firmly up. He's only going to improve at this stage of his career and he's already one of the best players at the club. Exciting times.

    Jota has told Benfica he wants a permanent transfer to Celtic, according to reports in Portugal.

    It's set to come as a huge boost to Ange Postecoglou, who has been keen to tie the loanee down for longer.



    The 23-year-old has been a revelation since making the temporary switch in last summer's transfer window, scoring 12 goals and adding the same amount of assists.

    And it's now looking likely that he will delight Hoops fans by extending his stay in the east end of Glasgow.

    Portuguese media outlet Jornal Noticiasreports that the Hoops will take up their option for a £6.5 million deal after the winger made his intentions clear.


    Postecoglou should have a decent budget to spend for next season with their impending Premiership title win set to seal them a guaranteed Champions League spot.

    Jota's signature will be a crucial piece of the puzzle as he plans for that.

    I wouldn’t either, considering I heard from a very good word that Jota wants to be the highest earner at Celtic, and Celtic are telling him to bolt, both parties want him to stay at Celtic though…

    I'd make both him and CCV high earners.

    You pay for players of their quality and potential.
