Details about Jota's mansion in Lisbon and Liverpool

Due to his impressive stats, the Premier League team permanently signed the forward on a two-year deal for £41 million.

According to India Times, the Portuguese star invested close to $3 million in an exclusive villa near Lisbon in 2022, two years after he had joined Liverpool from Wolves.

The mansion boasts of various segments, including a private gym to be used during the off-season and a game room.

The 28-year-old also owned a stylish townhouse near Liverpool city centre, purchased in 2021 for approximately $1.5 million.

The townhouse serves as his temporary home due to its proximity to Anfield and the club’s training facilities.
