Portugal gaffer Roberto Martinez has picked out Jota as one to watch after confirming the Celtic ace is on his call-up radar.
The Hoops winger has had a sensational year after making his Parkhead loan permanent last summer. And his new national team coach Martinez is considering rewarding the former Benfica ace with an invite to join his squad after being blown away by his Champions League displays for Ange Postecoglou’s newly-crowned kings of Scotland.
He said: “Absolutely, he’s on my radar. I think obviously Jota is a player that is very important for the national team in terms of the qualities he has. He’s a player that has this natural knack of beating players in one-v-one situations. Since I arrived in January, I’ve tried to follow all the players and clearly Jota is one of them.
