DBasia.news – The arrival of Luis Diaz at Liverpool has made Diogo Jota even more excited. Jota admitted that he had time to communicate with former FC Porto players regarding the impact Diaz would have on the team.
Liverpool are still competing in the League Cup, FA Cup, Champions League and Premier League. No doubt Jurgen Klopp needs all his players to be in a fit condition to be rotated and Diaz’s presence adds to that strength.
Liverpool spent up to €45 million to sign Diaz from Porto. He added quantity to the Liverpool front line which already had Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota, Takumi Minamino and Divock Origi.
Oliveira believes that Diaz’s technical ability when dribbling the ball will benefit Jota, who will score more goals. With the focus on Diaz, Jota can have more freedom when the two of them play together.
“I watch Porto a lot, I also play there, so I know, for me, he (Diaz) is the best player in the Portuguese league,” Jota recently told Premier League Productions.
“So I know what he’s capable of and, for example, I had a chat with Sergio Oliveira, who is now at Roma, and he said, ‘Now you’re going to score more goals because Luis is a great dribbler and he’s going to get a lot of goals. You’ll get that chance.”
“He’s a great player and I think he will be good in the Premier League and obviously good for us,” added Jota.
