Liverpool have managed a second transfer hit in the space of two days after reaching a deal to sign Diogo Jota from Wolves.
Just hours after the transfer of Thiago Alcantara from Bayern Munich was confirmed, the Reds have secured a transfer of 41 million pounds, which could increase to 45 million pounds, for the 23-year-old who has passed the last three years in Molineux.
It will bring Liverpool’s spending in just over 24 hours to £ 70 million, though £ 9 million will be recovered from the sale of teenage defender Ki-Jana Hoever to the Wolves with the prospect of the entire deal being worth £ 13.5 million plus a sale. 15%. in the clause.
Jota, who was out of the Wolves’ first two games of the season, will sign a five-year contract on Saturday.
It is understood that the Wolves have agreed to flexible payment terms that will see Liverpool pay just 10% of the initial £ 41 million fee over the next 12 months.
Liverpool turned their attention to the Portuguese after Watford quoted them more than £ 40 million for Ismaila Sarr.
Jota, who can play across the attack line, will be an important backup for Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
