Diogo Jota

Another Wolves player, and another member of the Portuguese revolution at the club. Jota arrived in the West Midlands from Atletico Madrid on loan after a stunning season out on loan with Porto. Owned by Atletico Madrid, big things are expected of the attacking midfielder with an incredible habit of leaving players in his wake with his skill.

Jota is a versatile player who can play anywhere in the attack. He has featured behind the striker but operates best when used in an attacking midfield role and not as a withdrawn striker. Often given a free role due to his ability and vision of the game, Jota has high levels of creativity and plenty of skills in his locker.

He can also score as well as create, and while at Porto last season, he managed eight goals to go with his five assists in the Portuguese top flight.

A move back to Atletico Madrid -- where they severely need some ingenuity and creative spark -- is expected, but in the meantime, Jota is looking to make the most of his opportunity in England.
