Al-Ittihad winger Jota can no longer help his new team in the Saudi Arabian Championship. Itti Mania reports this from a letter sent to journalist Khattan Alnajar.
According to Dzherel, the Saudi club’s administration praised the decision to exclude the 24-year Portuguese from the club’s application in the championship through the legionnaires’ limit.
It is also said that in Zhoti’s place another newcomer will take over - the Italian defender Luis Felipe, who just yesterday became the head of the Saudi club, having transferred from Betis for 25 million euros.
It is reported that Jota signed a contract with Al-Ittihad at the time of his death, having transferred from Celtic for 29 million euros. This year there are five matches and one goal scored.
Al-Ittihad's summer off-season warehouse was replenished with Karim Benzema, Fabinho and N'Golo Kante.
