Former Celtic winger Jota could make his first competitive start for Saudi club Al-Ittihad tonight.
Former Celtic winger Jota could make his first competitive start for Saudi club Al-Ittihad since moving to the club in the summer.
Saudi Pro League rules state teams can only have eight foreign players in their ranks, and as a result Jota was moved down the pipeline and not named in the club's squad for league fixtures. Speaking to the Saudi Arabian press, Nuno revealed:"Jota will participate in tomorrow’s match, and he is the only player whose participation in the match I can reveal.
