News Diogo Jota told he'll score more goals after Luis Diaz's arrival

Diogo Jota has revealed how a former teammate of Luis Diaz told him he believes his arrival at Liverpool will see the No.20 score more goals.

Diaz made an instant impact by registering an assist on his Reds debut last weekend, having only arrived on Merseyside a few days before, following his transfer from FC Porto.

And while speaking to his friend and AS Roma midfielder Sergio Oliveira, formerly of Porto, Jota was informed what to expect from the Colombian forward.

Speaking about the club's new No.23, Jota told Premier League Productions: "I used to watch Porto a lot, I played there as well, so I know, for me, he was the best player in the Portuguese league.

"So I know his abilities and, for example, I had a chat with Sergio Oliveira, who is now in Rome, and he's saying, 'Now you're going to score even more goals because Luis is an outstanding dribbler and he will get you those chances.'

"He's a great player and I think he will be good in the Premier League and good for us obviously."
