The sudden passing of Diogo Jota and his younger brother Andre Silva has shocked the entire football world . This is not only a huge shock to fans, but also a great loss to teammates, coaches and those who have worked with these two players.

Across social networks, a series of clubs, players and football organizations have sent condolences, tributes and gratitude to Jota and Andre - two talents who devoted themselves to the king sport but passed away at the prime of their careers.
Liverpool FC, Jota's home team, also had a heroic act that the entire football world admired. Immediately after receiving the sad news, the Merseyside team held a solemn memorial service at Anfield, where players, coaching staff and fans together observed a minute's silence for Jota and his brother.
Not stopping there, Liverpool also decided to establish a support fund called "Jota & Andre Foundation" to help young talents in difficult circumstances - a noble gesture showing gratitude and honoring the legacy that Jota left behind.
Liverpool have also taken the initiative to terminate the contract with Diogo Jota, thereby activating a special compensation clause in the contract. The 28-year-old player has 3 years left with the current Premier League champions (until June 2027). With a salary of 140,000 pounds/week, equivalent to 7.2 million pounds/year, the Jota family will receive a total of 21.84 million pounds.
Accordingly, the entire amount was transferred to his wife and three children in regular installments, ensuring long-term financial security for his family after the great loss.
This humane act not only shows Liverpool's respect for Jota, but also sends a strong message about humanity in football, the contributions and sacrifices of players are always remembered and rewarded.

In August 2022, Liverpool officially extended Diogo Jota's contract. This is a way for the Anfield team to show absolute trust in his efforts and persistent contributions since joining the team.
However, the unfortunate thing happened when Jota could not complete that unfinished journey with Liverpool. At the age of 28 - the most mature age of his career, he left forever, leaving behind unfinished dreams and making all the fans choke with regret.
