Jota to the Saudi league

[Glasbhoy81]

If Jota is going to sign for those animals in Saudi Arabia, how much do you think celtic should be charging them?
He has 4 years left on his deal and I think Benfica have a 30% sell on free.
I personally would be charging at least £30m , it's not as if they don't have the money. Chare them f30m & make them pay Benfica their £10m

I don’t think Jota would go to that league at this stage in his career

I hope not Those teams are on blood money I read that about Jota as well Fingers Crossed he dosent go anywhere but IF he does Celtic need to ask big mone One of the teams are supposed to be one that Reo was meant to be signing for so hopefully it’s just lazy reporting

The Celtic star has thrown cold water on that rumour.

Shocked. I thought Tic Tok was the biggest, bestest, most talented thing ever to enter Scottish football. Well that is after Alfie and Kent anyway. Must be gutted at the Cesspit.

£10m per year tax free would be hugely persuasive. Add the higher profile back home playing in the same league as Ronaldo, with a Portuguese manager in Nuno and in the same team as Benzema and Kante you would imagine his international prospects would increase. A couple of years of that and set for life at 26 ready to move onto a top 5 league or back to his beloved Benfica.

I have been asking myself why we are in for two new wingers in the Australian and South Korean.
Expecting Abada to go and Jota was always gonna be a risk for the off. So could be something in it.

If Jota goes then we will need to be in for a far higher profile winger than the two projects from Oz & SK.
Rumours of Tete from Shakhtar (was on loan at Leicester last season) make more sense if Jota were to leave

Can't wait to see his replacement

Alkass media appear to be the second subscription sports service in Qatar, after Al Jazeera Sports. As such they're a legitimate sports media outfit and not the Scottish SMSM.
The club should really have put out a quash or confirm statement at this point.

They did , that's why they got McGowan to tweet late on

 

[Bridie Bhoy]

The disgustingly huge sums of money being spent by the Saudis to import quality players means that the standard will continue to get higher. Their domestic players are very decent too. So maybe it won't be considered such a joke of a league in another year or two.

Jota's rumoured take-home pay would be about a 2000% pay rise, so it is more understandable that he is interested in the offer.

As Benfica are due a significant sell-on clause then I hope we are selling for more than the £20m quoted!

Assuming it is true, of course.

McGowan names Celtic’s Jota fee with deal done bar a late hitch

Stephen McGowan of the Daily Mail is reporting that Jota will leave Celtic for join Al Ittihad in a deal worth more than £20m.

We all know the power of £oyalty it definitely has more power than most of us realised.
Just ask Jota.
