Diogo Jota has signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool  that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2027.

The Portugal international has been rewarded with a new five-year deal for his fine form since originally joining from Wolves back in 2020. 

The 25-year-old netted 21 times in all competitions for the Reds last season, but he will face stiff competition for a place this term following the arrival of Darwin Nunez from Benfica.

Jota also played a vital role in helping Jurgen Klopp’s side win both the FA Cup and Carabo Cup last season, while they missed out on the Premier League title by just one point.

The forward is expected to miss out on Saturday’s Premier League opener on Saturday at newly-promoted Fulham.
