Celtic needed reinforcements out wide even before today’s terrible news. With Jota out for a lengthy spell it’s all the more important we do just that…
We were dealt a massive blow today with the news that Jota has been ruled out for up to nine months after picking up an ACL injury in the title clinching win at Tannadice last weekend. To say he will be a huge loss is an understatement as he was just starting to get back to peak fitness after his lack of game time over the previous 18 months.
Losing Jota for the rest of 2025 is a major blow
With a Scottish Cup final also looming it deprives us of a top quality option, and with focus now shifting towards next season it’s ever so vital we look to plug that gap left by his absence.
Vital Champions League qualifier at end of August
We have a Champions League qualifier to negotiate in August and need to be at our strongest to be in with a chance of taking part in the new look group stage for a second year running. With that in mind, it’s important we do all that we can to bring in someone of a similar quality.
It’s an area that was already in need of being strengthened, but with Jota’s injury it’s all the more important the club addresses this quickly and with a quality signing who is coming in ready and able to contribute straight away.

we have Maeda there so we wont be getting a player to replace Jota because he is out injured. We are going to get another striker. Plus KT on the left who i think will not be playing the roll that Taylor does KT more up the line left back. If anything it will be a winger on the right as back up to Khun though the main point is BR is not going to change his transfer plan because Jota got injured
