Jota sets tongues wagging after penciling in a Celtic return and telling the world about the club he loves
The 25-year-old left Parkhead in the summer of 2023 for a staggering £25 million fee.
Swooning Jota has waxed lyrical about Celtic, their supporters, and Ange Postecoglou, revealing his intention to teach his children the wonders of Parkhead.
The 25-year-old left the champions in the summer of 2023 for an eye-watering £25 million fee, but his tenure in Saudi Arabia was plagued by issues. The Portuguese winger is eager to establish himself as a star for Rennes. But he wanted his new fans to know all about Celtic and the fantastic two seasons he spent in Glasgow.
Jota won five trophies and established himself as a superstar. Speaking to Ouest France, he stated, “You had to be in Glasgow at the time to feel it.” Playing at Celtic Park, feeling the fans’ affection, and having the opportunity to be mentored by a wonderful coach (Ange Postecoglou) with a group that performed admirably.
“You have to thank everyone. I hope one day to be able to show my children what it was like, all the love I received. I’ll remember it for the rest of my life. It touched me because I didn’t expect it. When they started singing it, it was a very special moment.”
