Celtic are on the verge of announcing Jota on a permanent deal with everything wrapped up and ready to be made public.
Jota has been using the summer to head out on holiday and take some well earned time off, the player’s Celtic future has been up in the air but since the end of the season, there has been so many positive reports when it came to the player potentially staying in Glasgow.
After the club thrashed out the terms of a deal with Benfica and Jota’s agent, they are now set to announce the deal on Friday!
UPDATE: Jota has tonight agreed a four-year contract with Celtic.
Celtic and Benfica agreed a final deal of £6.3m, with a 30% sell-on clause, last month.
The Hoops have been patiently waiting for Jota to come back from his holidays to finalise personal terms. https://t.co/FFIxiDCzPc

Jota had an incredible season with the club, he helped bring home the most unlikely of title wins when a rebuild turned into a double winning season.
Fans will be delighted to see the hoops get this over the line.
In past years, under Peter Lawwell, it was unheard of us to go and sign top players after successful loan spells. The deals being made early and in plenty of time is something fans have been wanting to see for years. Michael Nicholson is making things happen.
