On July 5, 2025, Liverpool FC announced it would pay the remaining two years of Diogo Jota’s contract to his family following the Portuguese star’s tragic death in a car accident alongside his brother André Silva on July 3.

Liverpool FC has confirmed that it will honour the £150,000-per-week contract of Diogo Jota, 28, which is valid until 2027, and will transfer payments to his wife, Rute Cardoso, and their three children. The club’s statement expressed “profound sadness,” noting Jota’s 65 goals in 182 appearances. A minute’s silence was observed at the Club World Cup on July 4, reflecting his impact. Tributes from teammates, like Virgil van Dijk’s X post, “Forever a Red,” garnered 500,000 engagements.

Jota, killed in a car crash near Zamora, Spain, on July 3, was a key figure in Liverpool’s 2024–25 Premier League title and two UEFA Nations League wins for Portugal. The accident, caused by a tyre blowout, also claimed his brother André, 25, per Spain’s Guardia Civil. Jota’s 49 caps and recent marriage in June 2025 amplified the tragedy’s resonance, with fans flooding Anfield with flowers.

The football world mourned, with UEFA mandating a moment of silence at Women’s Euro 2025 matches, as reported by BBC Sport. Portugal’s Jessica Silva wrote on Instagram, “Diogo wasn’t just a star,” while England’s Lucy Bronze called the loss “devastating.” Liverpool’s decision aligns with past gestures, like honouring Jordan Henderson’s contract.

Liverpool’s support for Jota’s family, which affects his young children and the 3.5 million global fans according to YouGov, highlights the club’s values. This tragedy has sparked discussions about player legacies and club loyalty, echoing recent tributes like those paid to Captain Karnal Sher Khan. Jota’s loss emphasises the emotional depth of football, influencing how communities respond and establishing precedents for future support.
