Filipe Jota is showing what an outstanding player he is becoming for Celtic.
Skill. Pace. Dynamism and an outstanding barnet have made him an instant fans favourite.
Now the winger has stopped hitting the woodwork and started finding the back of the net, Jota is proving that he will be invaluable to Celtic having any success this season.
And his form is not just being noticed by the Hoops fans.
His parent club, Benfica (well, Benfica Youth to be exact) tweeted a congratulatory message about their on loan star and the Celtic fans all jumped on it with some hilarious replies.
Should Celtic sign Jota now or wait till end of the season? Take the poll HERE!

His performances have been pish. Best just leave him in Glasgow

He’s rubbish guys, you won’t want him back. We’ll take him for a nominal fee, just to get him off your books for you. Again, he’s absolutely rubbish, don’t take him back… please.

A goal or assist every 120 minutes for Jota in all competitions at Celtic this season. Been superb and is slowly becoming my favourite player.

There is no doubt this boy has a massive future ahead of him and at just €6m buy out clause, it seems like a no brainer to attempt to make this move a permanent one.
But as each passing game goes by, and every goal Jota puts away, his stock will rise so the Hoops will need to make a quick decision on whether they attempt to keep him before any other potential suitors come his way.
