Liverpool manager Arne Slot has decided that 28-year-old Diogo Jota no longer fits his long-term plans. The club now eyes a fresh option to lead the attack.
Jota faces a move away from Anfield as his future becomes uncertain. Top Saudi Pro League clubs and Arsenal have shown keen interest. This summer may mark a turning point for the Portuguese forward.
Jota remains contracted to Liverpool until June 2027. He has netted eight goals in 23 games this term. His progress suffered as he missed 15 matches due to injury.
Liverpool plans to bolster their striking options in the upcoming transfer window. The club is determined to sign a new centre-forward. This strategy increases the likelihood of Jota heading to Saudi Arabia.

Manager Slot also aims to upgrade his forward line. Darwin Nunez sits behind Jota in the pecking order. The club seeks an attacker who can deliver a greater impact.
Liverpool shows genuine interest in Newcastle striker Alexander Isak. Isak recorded 19 goals and provided five assists in 29 games this term. Fans will catch a glimpse of him in the League Cup final on 16 March.
The club will also consider offers for 26-year-old goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. The shot-stopper has emerged as a promising talent. His market value now stands between £30-40 million.
Slot’s clear vision signals a major overhaul of Liverpool’s front line. The summer transfer window could reshape the squad’s attacking options. Supporters should prepare for swift moves and dramatic changes ahead.
