Diogo Jota trains with former Portuguese sprinter Francis Obikwelu, who won silver at the 2004 Olympics, as Liverpool star looks to keep up with Sadio Mane and Mo Salah and nail down a starting spot for the Reds

Diogo Jota has been training with former sprinter Francis Obikwelu as he looks to get himself in peak physical condition ahead of the new season.

The Portuguese star has already found his scoring boots for Liverpool in pre-season, having returned from his time off following his involvement in the Euros over the summer.

But with his focus now back on Liverpool, Jota has brought in some help in the form of 42-year-old Obikwelu in an attempt to bring the best out of himself and keep up with the pace of his teammates Mo Salah and Sadio Mane.
