INTRODUCTION

As a fan of Liverpool, a club with great history both on the pitch and off it while doing business. I fell in love with this club since my childhood and I have watched and enjoyed this club's success in the past decade and it is safe to say that Liverpool is a great club with rich history. Here, we have a lot of great players and wonderful tactician in the person of our able manager, A German Coach Jurgen Klop.
But I want to talk about our recent 2020 signing, Diogo Jota from wolverhampton wanderers. The stats behind his achievements in such a short time since he joined speaks itself.

BRIEF BIO OF DIOGO JOTA

Diogo José Teixeira da Silva (born 4 December 1996), known as Diogo Jota,[note 1] is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward and midfielder for Premier League club Liverpool and the Portugal national team.

He started playing with Paços de Ferreira, before signing for La Liga club Atlético Madrid in 2016. After two seasons in the Primeira Liga, he was consecutively loaned to Primeira Liga club FC Porto in 2016 and English EFL Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2017. Jota helped Wolves gain promotion to the Premier League for the first time since 2012. He subsequently joined the club in July 2018 on a permanent deal for a reported €14 million and went on to make over 100 appearances for them. In September 2020, Jota signed for Liverpool for a fee reported to be €50 million (£41 million).

Diogo Jota's impact to Liverpool
On 19 September 2020, Jota joined Liverpool in a long-term deal, reportedly for a £41 million transfer fee, rising to £45 million in potential add ons.He made his debut in the EFL Cup five days later, coming on as a second-half substitute against Lincoln City in a 7–2 win.On 28 September, he scored on his Premier League debut for the club, with the third in a 3–1 win against Arsenal at Anfield. On 25 October, Jota scored the winning goal in a 2–1 win against Sheffield United at Anfield. Three days later, Jota scored the club's 10,000th goal in their history when he netted the opener against FC Midtjylland in the UEFA Champions League.On 3 November, he scored a hat-trick in a 5–0 win at Atalanta in the Champions League.[41] In doing so, Jota became the first player since Robbie Fowler in 1993 to score 7 goals in his first 10 Liverpool appearances. On 22 November, Jota scored the second goal in a 3–0 victory against Leicester City, becoming the first Liverpool player to score in each of his first four home matches in the Premier League. For his performances in October, Jota was awarded Liverpool Player of the Month by the club's supporters.The Portuguese international has scored a total of 8 goals in 12 matches after joining from Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Summer.
Conclusion
Diogo Jota has been a big revelation at Liverpool. It is obvious that if all other players perform at his level, Liverpool would be a much better team than they are now. He continues to perform in almost every competition he plays. Little wonder then, that I picked him above all the signings in the club this year. I wish him more success in his career with the club.
