Liverpool set to make touching Diogo Jota gesture | OneFootball

Diogo Jota's and his brother Andre Silva's deaths have shocked the footballing world and it still feels incomprehensible over 48 hours later.

The world has lost two young souls. Two brilliantly talented footballers. But most importantly to their loved ones, they have lost a father, an uncle, a husband, a son, a friend, a colleague and a teammate.

For anyone who knew Diogo and Andre, this is a loss that will never fully heal. Grief will stay with you for the rest of your life.

The tragedy and the shocking loss is something impossible to comprehend. Something the whole world is struggling to come to terms with.

Diogo and Andre leave a void behind that cannot be filled.

The brothers' funeral is taking place in Gondomar on Saturday morning. Liverpool have a number of representatives attending the ceremony, including backroom and boardroom staff as well as Jota's former teammates and coaches.

Outside Anfield a number of tributes have been laid in his honour with thousands of fans gathering to pay their respects.

Liverpool will honour Jota's legacy, who leaves the world behind as a Premier League and Nations League champion.

Record have reported that Liverpool will also honour the rest of Jota's contract, which was set to expire in 2027. The Portugal outlet claim that the remainder of his contract will be paid out to his family in full by the club.

As days and the weeks go by, there will be other tributes and memorials in Jota's legacy. The FA are set to talk to the club about how to honour him in the Community Shield at Wembley next month.

These are going to be difficult times as the club, the fans and his loved ones come to terms with the terrible tragedy.

Jota's legacy will live in forever. The club and the fans will make sure of that. His family, his loved ones will never walk alone.
