Giorgos Giakoumakis has joined the campaign to convince Jota to make his move to Celtic a permanent deal. 

While the Celtic fans celebrated the SPFL title success last weekend there was a nagging doubt over whether two of the main stars were also saying their farewell’s. 

Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers joined on loan at the end of the summer transfer window and made a very telling contribution to an unexpected title win. 

It has been reported that both loan deals contained options to buy the players outright but nine months down the line there are other variables in play with the ultimate decision down to the players. 

Peer pressure can have an impact, with Jota joined by some Celtic team-mates on holiday in Ibiza Giakoumakis has revealed to the Daily Record that he has also made a pitch to the Benfica man to make his move permanent: 

The service to me is important. That’s why I’ve told Jota already. When we were celebrating last week I said: ‘I wish you would stay here because we really need you’. 

We’re looking forward to the Champions League. I’ve already experienced it with AEK Athens in my career and it was unbelievable but playing Champions League for Celtic, listening to that anthem in our stadium, it’s going to be massive. I can’t wait. 

We will all have to wait to see if Jota will be reuniting with Giakoumakis at Celtic for the season ahead.
