Overview

• Chelsea and their players have agreed to contribute equal shares of their reported $15.5 million Club World Cup bonus pool to the family of the late Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva, with individual donations estimated at roughly $500,000 before tax.
• The Athletic first reported the decision, which has not been detailed publicly by Chelsea in terms of exact percentages or post-tax figures.
• The donation follows Chelsea’s 3–0 final win over Paris Saint-Germain on July 13, when winger Pedro Neto dedicated each performance to his late friend Diogo Jota.
• Spain’s Guardia Civil is still conducting a forensic inquiry into the July 3 crash on the A-52 near Zamora, examining tyre fragments and speed data without a public conclusion.
• Liverpool has retired Jota’s No. 20 shirt, introduced a 'Forever 20' emblem for the 2025/26 season and plans a permanent sculpture at Anfield as part of its ongoing memorial program.
