@O_Stevenson96 Hi Ollie, give me a shout if you still need something!

@marklomasSport Hi Mark, please can you follow me back so I can DM you in regards to an interview on talkSPORT?

What a privilege to be in #CapeVerde to watch the nation’s historic @FIFAWorldCup qualification. Definitely of the most special days I’ve had as a sports journalist. ⚽️ 🇨🇻 @fcfcomunica #CaboVerde #FIFAWCQ2026

⚽️ Everything between player & clubs agreed at 11pm but Sporting missed the @ligaportugal registration deadline by a matter of seconds. ⚽️Transfer fell through & he remains at Forest but source close to player says Jota Silva "faces all challenges with optimism" #DeadlineDay

⚽️Discussions had been going on for several weeks - Sporting wanted a loan with option to buy Jota Silva but Forest only wanted to sell. ⚽️Forest finally accepted Sporting's offer late on #DeadlineDay, €4.5m for the loan plus a non-mandatory option of €15.5m for a #transfer

Tough #DeadlineDay situation for @NFFC winger Jota Silva, who missed out on a return to 🇵🇹 with @SportingCP after the club failed to register him... by seconds:

Time to turn a new leaf and focus on new goals and dreams. See you soon! Obrigado. Thank you. Gracias. Grazie. Teşekkürler ❤️⚽️

Jota Silva, 'the Portuguese Grealish', named 🇵🇹 Player of the Month for 3rd time this season - playing for 5th-placed Vitoria. Porto keen but #Wolves, #Villa, #Brighton & #Fulham are all watching him and Jota has always dreamed of playing in Premier League. Watch this space...
