Liverpool striker Diogo Jota: I know I can help Klopp

Liverpool striker Diogo Jota believes his versatility will be a bonus this season.

Jota will hope to play a prominent role in the upcoming Premier League campaign - and he believes he has an "extra advantage" over the likes of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino in the competition for minutes.

Asked whether he has a favoured position, Jota told Liverpool's official website : "No, not really. I always answer this question [with] I like to be on the field, no matter which position.

"But, of course, I feel like being able to play in different roles gives you an extra advantage because managers can choose you for one thing or another.

"It's good for a player to have that ability – and that's one thing I'm looking to improve on as well."
