Newcastle United are interested in signing Diogo Jota from Premier League rivals Liverpool in the summer transfer window, according to journalist Ben Jacobs in GiveMeSport. It has been suggested that Jota could leave the Reds at the end of the season, and that the Magpies are among the clubs interested in him.
Jacobs said: “What I can tell you in terms of clubs that are closely looking at Jota, is that you have Newcastle United from the Premier League.
“A Jota exit is not guaranteed, but there is a realistic possibility that suitors will make an approach to Liverpool to better understand the situation. Wolves may be interested, but Jota wants European and ideally Champions League football. Newcastle may be able to offer him that.”
Jota joined Liverpool from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2020. The 28-year-old Portugal international forward has since scored 64 goals and given 22 assists in 173 appearances for the Merseyside outfit.
