Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad has signed Jota from Celtic.
Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad has officially announced the completion of signing Portuguese winger Jota from the Scottish champions, Celtic for an undisclosed fee.
The 24-year-old makes the permanent switch following two years in Glasgow, having spent one season on loan from Benfica before signing a permanent contract.
Jota helped Celtic to two league titles during his time with the club, scoring 27 goals over a two-year spell in all competitions.
During his time in Glasgow, Jota made 83 appearances in total for Celtic, scoring 28 times.
The winger leaves the club after winning two league titles and the Scottish and League cup.
He follows a string of high-profile players to join the Saudi Pro League and becomes Al-Ittihad’s third signing of the summer, following the signings of former Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema and ex-Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante for the club.
