LIVERPOOL have completed the £45million signing of Diogo Jota – and confirmed his shirt number.
The former Wolves ace will wear the vacant No20 shirt this season.
Jurgen Klopp’s side officially announced the arrival of the 23-year-old Portuguese international this afternoon.
The Reds raided Wolves after signing former Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara in a £25m deal.
Liverpool teenager Ki-Jana Hoever, 18, has moved in the opposite direction.
Jota follows Thiago and Konstantinos Tsimikas as the third summer signing for the reigning Premier League champions.
He told Liverpool’s official site: “It’s just a really exciting moment for me and my family.
“All of my path since I was a kid and now, to join a club like Liverpool – the world champions – is just unbelievable. I just want to get started.
“It is one of the best teams in the world – the best at the moment because they are world champions.
“When you look at the Premier League, you always see Liverpool as one of the biggest teams in the country, so it’s impossible to say no.
“So we just want to come [here], to give our best and hopefully I can become a good option for Liverpool in the future.”
Talking about how he will fit into Klopp’s superstar squad, he said: “I think I am a team player.
“I play up front and my job is to find a way to score goals and to provide assists and that’s what they can expect from me – that I will always do my best. I will always try to help the team in the best way possible.
“They [the fans] can count on me because now I am one of them and I will give my best.”
