Jota's move comes less than 24 hours after Liverpool announced the signing of Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara for a fee reported to be around £20 million.
Jota has impressed hugely during his time at Molineux, scoring nine and seven goals respectively in his two seasons in the Premier League.

Hoever, a right-back who has made four appearances under Klopp, will help fill the void left by right-back Matt Doherty's departure to Tottenham Hotspur.
All told, it is a canny piece of business from Liverpool and one that flew under the radar until news was confirmed.
