Impact Jota will need quite a bit more time before he is ready to take the field again, as the forward is expected to be out until after the November international break, leaving him out around another three weeks. The club will hope for no setbacks and to have him as an option to face Southampton on Nov. 24, as he is a regular starter when fit, starting in eight of his nine appearances before the injury.

Immediately ruled out Jota (upper body) is out for Sunday's trip to Arsenal, per manager Arne Slot. "Federico might train with us today or tomorrow - but Diogo definitely not. And Conor Bradley, let's s...

Impact Jota was ruled out immediately for Sunday's trip to Arsenal, in a somewhat surprising turn, as he was originally reported to have suffered upper body bruising. It seems to be serious bruising if he's entirely out of training and ruled out for Sunday. Darwin Nunez will lead the Liverpool line during a potential title six-pointer against Arsenal on Sunday.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Jota (knock) is out for Wednesday's trip to Leipzig, according to manager Arne Slot."It's difficult to judge at this moment of time to see how long that's going to take."

Impact Jota suffered the bruise after a defender fell on him during Sunday's 2-1 win over Chelsea. The striker will now be sidelined for Wednesday's Champions League clash, and is doubt for a Sunday trip to Arsenal. Darwin Nunez projects as the starter in Jota's place. Nunez offers less of a direct goalscoring threat, but tends to link up better with Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah on the wings.

Doubtful for Wednesday Jota is doubtful for Wednesday's match against Leipzig following his early exit from Sunday's 2-1 win over Chelsea, according to manager Anre Slot. "Diogo had to be substituted an...

Impact Jota could be heading to the sidelines, with the forward having picked up an undisclosed issue following a hard tackle in Sunday's win. This leaves him in heavy doubt to feature in the mid-week UCL match, which could be a significant loss after starting in all but two games to begin the season. That said, most signs point to the forward being left out, as even if he is an option, it will probably be off the bench, with Darwin Nunez as his likely replacement.

Impact Jota scored the only goal of the game in the ninth minute as he was found in the centre of the box by Cody Gakpo.

Returns to bench Jota (knock) is on the bench for Wednesday's clash with Bologna.

Impact Jota is back on the bench for Wednesday's clash after overcoming a knock. It seems he's not back to full fitness, as Darwin Nunez got the nod in the starting XI for the Champions League clash.

Impact Jota had a slight scare following the club's match Saturday but appears to have shaken off any concerns, as he is expected to feature now. This is great news for the club, with the attacker only having missed the start in one match this campaign. That said, they will hope to see the start, although they may leave him on the bench to begin to be cautious.

Impact Jota swung in the corner late in the first half Saturday that resulted in Liverpool taking a 1 - 0 lead en route to their 2 - 1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers. The attacker was left out of Liverpool's previous Premier League title versus Bournemouth before returning to the starting XI Saturday and providing his second assist of the season. Jota was also credited with a single clearance, contributing to the Liverpool defensive effort.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Three shots Saturday Jota had three shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 loss against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Jota shot three times but only one of them was on net during a tough loss at Anfield. The striker was brought off early in the second half as well after struggling to get anything going. Still Jota seems to be the preferred option in Arne Slot's attack, despite the poor showing. With the Champions League coming up there's a good chance Jota will be rotated more going forward.

SEPTEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Assists in win Jota assisted once to go with four shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Brentford.

Impact Jota put his name back on the score sheet with an assist to Luis Diaz on the break. One of the biggest concerns for Jota has been his generally subpar link-up play. In the early stages of the 2024/25 campaign he's looked far improved in that, giving him a new facet to his game with some playmaking. If he can keep this form going Jota should have no issues holding on to the top job.

AUGUST 26 • ROTOWIRE

Nets Saturday Jota scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 win against Ipswich Town.

Impact Jota opened the scoring during Saturday's win, as well as making the start. If Jota remains the starting striker moving forward that would be a nice role in the coming weeks. Still Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez will likely provide competition or rotation for Jota, limiting him from taking all minutes.

Finishes on bench Jota scored 10 goals and added three assists during 21 appearances (14 starts.)

Impact Jota's role was limited by injury and form but he still reached double-digit goals for the second time in his career. With Liverpool set for a new manager in Arne Slot it's likely there will be a full battle for the starting striker role, leaving Jota's role for the future uncertain.

Back on bench Jota (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's clash with Wolves.

Impact Jota returns to the bench for the Premier League finale. The striker was plagued by injuries throughout the second half of the season and is only fit enough for the bench. With Darwin Nunez out of form it's Cody Gakpo that leads the line for the finale.

Pictured at training ground Jota (undisclosed) was pictured at the Liverpool training ground ahead of Sunday's clash with Wolves.

Impact Jota is working back from an undisclosed issue and trained ahead of the season finale. The striker is looking to get fit heading into the offseason in what is going to be a competition to impress the new Liverpool manager for the starting job up top. Jota has scored 10 times in 21 appearances in the Premier League.

Not yet training Jota (undisclosed) isn't training ahead of Sunday's clash with Tottenham, according to manager Jurgen Klopp."Diogo is not in team training yet."

Impact Jota suffered the ankle injury against Fulham and is now in doubt for the remainder of the season as he has yet to get back in training. The forward would be a significant loss, though Liverpool don't have much left to play for, as they are well and truly out of the title race but secure in the Champions League.

Impact Jota is now set for another tenure on the sidelines after just returning from an eight-match absence four games ago, as he is now dealing with an undisclosed issue that will leave him out for two weeks. This is a tough blow for the forward, as he just earned his first start since recovering from his previous issues, with Darwin Nunez most likely reclaiming the starting spot at striker now that Jota is out. He is now set for a return for the May 5 match against Tottenham or the May 13 game against Aston Villa, looking to avoid setbacks and make a clean return before the conclusion of the season.

Nets Sunday Jota scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 win against Fulham.

Impact Jota was right back among the goals during Sunday's win, putting together a nice showing during the rout. The striker is just trying to find some form after coming back from injury. Jota will hope to keep this form going, especially with Darwin Nunez struggling for form, potentially opening a spot in the starting XI.
