Our deepest condolences are with the loved ones of Diogo Jota and his brother, Andre, and everyone connected with Liverpool FC following Thursday’s heartbreaking news.
Rest In Peace, Diogo Jota
The forward and his sibling died in a car crash while on holiday in Spain.
Figures from across the footballing world, including Cristiano Ronaldo, have paid tribute to the 28-year-old, who also played for Portugal, FC Porto and Wolverhampton Wanderers, among others.
The talisman moved to Liverpool from Wolves in 2020 and has been one of the most Lethal strikers in the Premier League, his aerial ability was unmatched as he rose up the tallest when Liverpool needed him the most. The art of Diogo Jota was thriving in chaos, he used to live in crowded spaces between the centre-backs, used to cause commotion and danger among the backline but always came out on top every time.

Não faz sentido. Ainda agora estávamos juntos na Seleção, ainda agora tinhas casado. À tua familia, à tua mulher e aos teus filhos, envio os meus sentimentos e desejo-lhes toda a força do mundo. Sei que estarás sempre com eles. Descansem em Paz, Diogo e André. Vamos todos sentir… pic.twitter.com/H1qSTvPoQs
