Wolves boss Nuno: Diogo Jota deserves his Portugal call

Wolves boss Nuno says Diogo Jota deserves his Portugal call.

Regular internationals Rui Patricio, Joao Moutinho and Ruben Neves have been joined by Diogo Jota for his first senior call up ahead of Portugal's Euro 2020 qualification matches against Ukraine and Serbia.

Nuno said, “We're very happy for him that he goes to his national team. It's a good reward and we hope everything goes well, not only for Diogo, but we've got a lot of players who are going to be involved in their national teams.

“I'm always very supportive and very happy. It means a lot for us that our players go to their national teams and they play, represent their country. There's nothing stronger than representing your country in football and I hope everything goes okay."
