Report: Liverpool very close to completing Jota deal

Liverpool are closing in on the signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Diogo Jota, according to a report.

The Reds confirmed the signing of Thiago Alcantara from Bayern Munich on Friday afternoon in a deal worth an initial £20m.

Jurgen Klopp hinted at his press conference earlier today that Liverpool are not necessarily finished in the transfer window yet, having also brought in left-back Kostas Tsimikas.

The Liverpool Echo claims that the Merseyside outfit are already at an advanced stage in their pursuit of their next target, with a deal for Wolves ace Jota believed to be close.

Portugal international Jota is rumoured to now be at the top of Klopp's wanted list, ahead of Watford's Ismaila Sarr, with a little over two weeks of the window left to run.

Liverpool are said to be confident of striking a deal with Wolves for the 23-year-old, who has scored and assisted a combined 22 goals in two Premier League seasons at Molineux.
