In recent weeks, we have shared numerous reports discussing the potential reunion between Jota and Ange Postecoglou at Spurs. A recent update from TEAMtalk on October 4 indicated that Tottenham is now leading the race to sign the winger. This development came after Jota was excluded from the Al-Ittihad team due to the club exceeding the limit of foreign players.
According to the report, the agent representing Jota has been actively searching for a new club. They have been observed at several Tottenham matches this season, including the North London Derby two weeks ago. CaughtOffside also pointed out that injuries to Ivan Perisic and Manor Solomon have intensified Spurs’ need for another winger. Jota is reportedly at the top of the club’s wishlist.
Now, SpotMediaSet has revealed that Jota has drawn ‘strong’ interest from Premier League clubs, with Tottenham being particularly keen on acquiring his services. The outlet even suggests that Spurs are considering inquiring about a loan deal with Al-Ittihad for the 24-year-old.
However, it is unclear why the Saudi club would prefer to loan out Jota in January instead of selling him permanently to recoup their investment. Given his talents, there would undoubtedly be no shortage of interest in the former Celtic player’s abilities.
