Diogo Jota

A 21 year old attacking midfielder, Diogo Jota made waves last season in the Championship with a very impressive seventeen goals, ranking him 5th in the race for the Golden Boot. Even at the relatively tender age of 21, Jota made 44 appearances and was an integral part of the Wolves team that decimated its competition to win the Championship and win promotion to the Premier League.

As a 19 year old, Jota was one of the most sought after names in Europe and his signature was secured by Spanish giants Atletico Madrid. While he didn't play at the erstwhile Calderon, Jota impressed on loan at Porto, registering 8 goals in 27 appearances as well as playing in the UEFA Champions League.

Jota has represented Portugal at the U-19, U-21 and U-23 levels and seems poised to take the Premier League by storm, despite his diminutive stature.
