Overview

  • Thousands gathered in Gondomar to honour Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva at their funerals, attended by football figures and Portuguese leaders.
  • Liverpool FC announced it will pay out the remaining two years of Jota’s contract and retire his No. 20 shirt in tribute to the forward.
  • Guardia Civil’s forensic unit is examining whether excessive speed and poor asphalt maintenance on the A-52 contributed to the crash.
  • The rented Lamborghini Huracán’s tire blew out during a high-speed overtaking maneuver, causing the vehicle to veer off and ignite instantly.
  • Doctors had advised Jota against flying after recent lung surgery, which led to the road journey that ended in the fatal accident.
