Despite continuing rumours linking Tottenham Hotspur with a transfer for Jota, the latest report claims Ange Postecoglou is still not persuaded his former player is the ideal guy for Spurs.
Tottenham may still have attacking potential like Heung-min Son, Dejan Kulusevski, and Brennan Johnson at their disposal, but injuries have left the squad worryingly thin as we enter the winter time.
Ange Postecoglou needs reinforcements for his squad in the January transfer window, with James Maddison, Ivan Perisic, and Manor Solomon all out until next year, and Richarlison just beginning to recuperate from his own surgery.
Jota, a former Celtic winger, has been linked with a move to Europe because he is ineligible to play in the Saudi league for Al-Ittihad (TEAMtalk). Spurs are one of the clubs interested in Jota, with Postecoglou maybe eager to rejoin with the Portuguese attacker (Football Insider).
Jota might not be the right fit for Postecoglou’s Spurs.
According to The Sun, Postecoglou is not letting his heart rule his mind, and is still “mulling over” a move for the 24-year-old.
Postecoglou is unclear whether Jota would “be a good fit for the Premier League,” and the Australian hasn’t “made up his mind” about signing his former Celtic star in January.
According to the article, Jota is “desperate” to leave Saudi Arabia and “join old boss” Postecoglou at Spurs. Wolves are thought to be circling if Postecoglou decides against the move.
Spurs Online Opinion
Just because Jota performed well for Postecoglou in Scotland does not mean he is a good fit for the Spurs system or the English game. Postecoglou must think carefully about this choice and avoid allowing emotion to cloud his judgement.
