Diogo Jota played as a striker for Liverpool.
The 28-year-old forward began his career in his native Portugal, playing and spent time at Atletico Madrid, in Spain, before coming to England.
He then joined the Merseyside club from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2020.
Jota played an important role throughout his five years with the Reds, including scoring six times in Liverpool’s recent Premier League-winning season.
An avid video gamer, Jota also owned an eSports team and regularly streamed on Twitch.
He got married just two weeks ago to long-term girlfriend Rute Cardoso – see our 9.26 post – and has three children.
Jota’s brother, Andre Silva, is also a professional footballer who played in the Portuguese second tier.
