Jota admits there was no single moment that convinced him to sign for Celtic permanently.
The winger became a huge fans favourite during his season on loan from Benfica, scoring 13 times in 40 appearances and providing 14 assists. That return made it a no-brainer for the Hoops to bring him back to Parkhead for the long-term. A £6.5million fee was included as part of the loan agreement with Benfica. All that needed to be sorted out were personal terms, which was finally done last week and the Portuguese put pen to paper on a four-year deal with the Scottish Premiership champions.
The wait for the news caused a few nerves amongst fans, however. A similar deal for Cameron Carter-Vickers was sealed last month. Jota was expected to follow quickly, but talks seemed to drag on as the winger enjoyed his summer, being snapped on holiday in Ibiza with Carl Starfelt before heading to a music festival in his homeland.
