What can you say about Jota?
The boy is simply class.
After a first half footballing masterclass in yesterday’s Premier Sports Cup semi final at Hampden, the Celtic fans know that they have a very special player on their hands.
If anyone is in any doubt how special this boy is, just take a look at this amazing piece of skill as his parent club go nuts over the kind of football this young man is producing:

With all the speculation surrounding Jota and the option to buy clause that is reported to be £6.5m, BBC Sportsound’s Kenny McIntyre was holding a post match interview with the tricky winger and when he asked if he’s enjoying life in Scotland, Jota replied, “I think it’s been terrific. I’ve just adapted very well.
“All the teammates have been very good all the stuff . But I want to remain humble and just do my thing.
“Enjoy football game after game because we just have to enjoy life and I’m doing it right now”
McIntyre then asked the question every Celtic fan wants to know the answer to, “Do you want to stay?”
Jota coyly replied, “I just want to play so that’s, that’s what I’m doing.”
So Jota was not giving anything away but just before midnight, Portuguese transfer specialist Pedro Almeida, revealed that a deal to bring the 22 year old will be ‘advanced’ by Celtic as they look to offer €7.5m to secure his services.
💥 Celtic will advance to the definitive signing of #Jota from Benfica for 7.5M€. 🟢🇵🇹 #CelticFC

This news will be music to the Hoops fans ears who have not been as excited about a winger wince the days of Man City journeyman, Patrick Roberts.
What an attacking team we see developing here, Ange has them ticking over well and soon we’ll be practically unstoppable in domestic games.
That lot folded today and unless Giofanny Van Brockbin has a magic wand, I can see them collapse in style, ie. the arsehole-totallycalapsio happening sooner than even I thought it would or hoped it would.
I’m away to bet the treble, I’ve already bet for us to lift the title, after those 2 six goal games at the start of the season was enough to merit a wager.

Its all going in the right direction, our progressive play is delightful at times but we still only just got passed the parked bus on Saturday. Ange says we’re got a long way to go to achieve where he wants us to be so I just can’t wait for January. Would have been nicer if Jota actually said that he wanted to sign for us but he didn’t say no. HH
