Liverpool’s activities in the transfer market this summer are very peaceful without causing the hustle and bustle experienced by Manchester United. After tight negotiations, they managed to get the signature of their target player, Thiago Alcantara from Bayern Munich. They also managed to bring in Diogo Jota from Wolverhampton.
Diogo Jota is a forward. He completed a squad that currently has more options for Juergen Klopp in deciding the composition. After officially joining Liverpool, Nuno Espirito Santo, the Wolverhampton manager, believes that Diogo Jota is going to the right place.
Diogo Jota, a Portuguese player who has 4 caps with his national team, is a figure whose technical abilities are on par with Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino. Nuno’s opinion is reasonable because Diogo Jota is very fluent in playing in various positions on the front lines, both in wing and center-forward positions.
Hence, it is considered to be an ideal recruit to provide protection for the trio of Liverpool, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino. Juergen Klopp himself was very impressed with his game when the Liverpool squad met Wolve in the Premier League event.
Diogo has the performance, determination and flexibility of play in line with Klopp’s desire. The rhythm of Liverpool’s game will be different from Diogo. This figure is expected to be able to renew Liverpool’s style of play on the front lines so that it is not easily guessed by opponents in the Premier League.
Diogo is able to play equally well in the left or right winger position, even he can play in the striker and second striker positions. This ability makes it very easy for Klopp to implement Liverpool’s game strategy.
The 24-year-old forward has scored 44 goals and 19 assists in 131 appearances for Wolves in all competitions since signing from Atletico Madrid in the 2017/18 season. It is a very important note for the future of his career at Liverpool. He is contracted until 2025.
Manager Juergen Klopp is likely to make a number of changes and invite several young players in order to rotate his squad. Young players such as Neco Williams, Sepp van den Berg, Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliott can all be played alongside first-team players such as Adrian, James Milner and Takumi Minamino.
Let’s take a look at how Diogo Jota looks with the Reds Liverpool on his debut against Lincoln City in the Carabao Cup. This year Liverpool are determined to add the Carabao Cup to their trophy collection.
