Liverpool has been profoundly grieved by the passing of Diogo Jota, and the club's response to the player's death has gone far beyond ordinary condolences. Starting with team members, coaching staff, and senior executives traveling together to Gondomar for condolences, the club has also decided to honor the full salary for the remaining two years of Jota's contract and pay it to his family.
In 2020, Liverpool signed Jota from Wolves for €44.7 million. During his time at Liverpool, Jota made 182 appearances, scoring 65 goals and providing 26 assists. He helped the team win 1 Premier League title, 1 FA Cup, 2 League Cups, and was named Premier League Player of the Month in January 2024.
