A lot of Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to share their concerns at the latest claim to emerge regarding the future of loanee winger Jota.
It is believed the Bhoys may have hit a potential stumbling block in their efforts to tie Jota down to a permanent deal at Parkhead, with the winger wanting a return to Benfica if he is guaranteed game time, according to claims in Portugal.
Do you expect Jota to sign permanently?
Yes
No
Adding to the Hoops’ concerns, it is thought Benfica winger Everton Soares has been offered a potential return to Brazil, which could open up a free spot with the Portuguese outfit for Jota.
And with Celtic having done a reasonable amount of business already in the January window, it seems these claims have brought the fans back down to earth.
What did these Celtic fans have to say?
“My hearts actually sank please don’t be true”
Along with Kyogo Furuhashi, the Portuguese winger has provided Celtic’s attack with a new lease of life under Ange Postecoglou, having provided nine goal involvements in his 12 league appearances to date.
Jota has only been at the club for a matter of months, but it seems he has made a major impression on the Celtic fans given his incredible start to life in Glasgow.
