The Hoops' 24-year-old Portuguese winger wants to help his team capture the domestic treble.



As he anticipated the Scottish Cup final against Inverness at Hampden Park on Saturday, Jota characterized Celtic as a large club with "a lot of soul."


After helping the Hoops win the Scottish Premiership title for the second year in a straight and defeating Old Firm rivals Rangers in the Viaplay Cup final, the 24-year-old Portuguese winger is hoping to assist the Hoops complete a domestic trifecta against the Championship team.


Jota, a fan favorite who joined Celtic on a five-year deal from Benfica last season after spending time on loan at the Parkhead club, said of the organization: "This is such a large club with a lot of character.



"I see clubs with soul, and Celtic is no different. That is what I want for my life and my career."


"Our fans speak for themselves, and we are perhaps one of the best clubs in the world in terms of passion and soul.


"That's what I want to achieve; every time I enter Celtic Park or play away from home, the crowd gives me an extra drive.


"I just want to make the most of it because it's an amazing feeling that not many athletes can have."



Jota, who increased his season total to 14 goals by scoring the game's lone goal against Rangers in the semi-final at Hampden Park, is "very excited" about the final, in which the Hoops are heavy favorites to defeat the Highland club and complete the sweep.


We have been putting a lot of effort into it since day one, he remarked.


"We wanted to win the title and qualify for the two cup finals, so one is over (the final), and there's still one more to go.


"So we definitely go strong again."
