Liverpool shared a fresh message of support to the family of Diogo Jota on what would have been the Portugal international’s 29th birthday.
Jota tragically lost his life in a car accident in July, sending shockwaves around the world as fans of all clubs came together to mourn the passing of the universally loved Liverpool star.
Liverpool have committed to pay the full value of Jota’s contract to his family. The versatile forward had married his wife Rute just 11 days before the accident, which also claimed the life of his brother André Silva.
Keeping the memory of Jota alive on Thursday, Liverpool took to social media to write: “Today, as every day, we remember Diogo Jota on what would have been his 29th birthday.
“All of our love, thoughts and prayers continue to be with his wife Rute, his children, parents and all of his family and friends, as well as those of his brother, André.
“Forever in our hearts, forever our number 20.”
