'I'm Telford on Football Manager... I'm already on 2029!': Wolves star Diogo Jota reveals gaming is helping him pass the time during the coronavirus lockdown... and backs Liverpool to be crowned Premier League champions if 2019-20 season is axed

Wolves forward Diogo Jota has revealed he has been playing computer game Football Manager to pass the time during the Coronavirus lockdown.

The 2019-20 season was brought to a halt last month, with prime minister Boris Johnson ordering members of the public to stay indoors to prevent the spread of the virus.

Football clubs have been consistent in their approach, closing training grounds and designing bespoke home workout plans for their players.

To alleviate the boredom Jota has appointed himself virtual manager of non-league club Telford and has already progressed to the year 2029.
