Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to react after the club tweeted photos of Diogo Jota in the gym and on the training ground.
The Portugal international is working his way back to full fitness, after suffering a knee injury against FC Midtjylland in the Champions League.
That unfortunate incident happened on December 9th, so the £41 million man has nearly been out for two months as a result of the problem.
Now, however, it looks like the former Atletico Madrid marksman is closing in on a return to action.
Understandably, the Liverpool fans on Twitter have gone wild at this news.
Before his injury, Jota was in phenomenal form.
The 24-year-old racked up nine goals in his first 17 appearances as a Red, including match-winning strikes against Sheffield United and West Ham.
In his absence, Jurgen Klopp’s men went on a bizarre barren spell in front of goal.
Incredibly, Roberto Firmino’s opener against Tottenham on January 28th was Liverpool’s first Premier League goal of 2021.
Hopefully, when Jota is available to Klopp, his presence will spark the likes of Mohamed Salah, Firmino and Sadio Mane into their blistering form of old.
Let’s see what the Liverpool fans on Twitter have been saying…
