Andy Halliday can't quite believe Jota is back in Glasgow for a snip of the fee they got for him just a year and a half ago
Jota spent one year with Al-Ittihad before an offseason move to Rennes, which has sold the Portuguese forward to Celtic for a reported 10 million euros ($10.5 million). Celtic got a reported 29 million ($30.5 million) selling him after his first spell in Glasgow.
As he prepares for a second Celtic stint, it will be interesting to see what Rodgers does with the 25-year-old. Daizen Maeda is having perhaps his best season in green and white, while Nicolas Kuhn is the current front-runner for the player of the season award.

Jota wants to "bring joy" to the Celtic supporters even though "times have changed" at Parkhead. Having left in the summer of 2023, the winger returns to Glasgow on a five-and-a-half-year deal after leaving French side Rennes where he spent the last six months following a tough spell in Saudi Arabia.

Jota has arrived in Glasgow to seal his transfer return to Celtic, according to reports. It's thought the 25-year-old winger has touched down in Scotland to put the finishing touches on his switch to the Scottish Premiership. The Scottish Sun reports Jota has arrived in the city ahead of a £9m transfer move from Ligue 1 side Rennes.
According to 67 Hail Hail, Sarpsborg have rejected the initial approach from Celtic for Sondre Ørjasæter. It is understood that the Hoops went in with a bid of around €5.25million which equates to around £4.4million.
Jota's emotional return to Celtic was completed earlier this week, although confusion remains over the winger's squad number.
Celtic have reportedly had a bid rejected for Norwegian winger Sondre Orjasaeter. The 21-year-old made 30 appearances for Sarpsborg 08 in 2024, in which he scored six goals and assisted five as the club finished 12th in the Eliteserien.
