Jota scored in Portugal’s first group stage win over Czech Republic on Tuesday.
Ahead of their next game against Turkey, Jota said: "Klopp messaged me after (Portugal’s) first game.
“He is a coach that doesn’t miss anything, he knows the right moments he should talk to the players.
"It was a word of support because my goal was disallowed and it had a special meaning for me. But then we got the three points and that was the most important thing."
