‘Diogo Jota was an extraordinary person’ - Portuguese Football Federation

The Portuguese Football Federation issued a statement confirming the death of the star player. “The Portuguese Football Federation and the entire Portuguese football community are completely devastated by the deaths of Diogo Jota and André Silva, this morning in Spain. Much more than just a fantastic player, with almost 50 caps for the National A Team, Diogo Jota was an extraordinary person, respected by all his teammates and opponents, someone with an infectious joy and a reference in the community itself."

The ace striker featured in 182 games for Liverpool and found the back of the net on 65 occasions. Jota also played 49 games for Portugal.

Most of the Premier League clubs like Chelsea and Manchester United have already paid rich tributes on their social media pages. He was young and had a lot more to offer to the game. This is a big loss to the football community without a doubt.
