https://www.skysports.com/football/news/32461/13391754/diogo-jota-liverpool-forward-dies-in-car-accident-in-spainWhen I first saw the news I couldn't believe it because it came as a shocker but then I had to confirm it from other sources and it was true that Diego Jotta has passed on from a car accident. This is very painful to the world of football having to lose such a young talent to death when we were looking forward to seeing more of his footwork next season.
Rest on DJ... My deepest condolences goes to the family and the Liverpool football community. What a loss!
There have been several car accidents that lead to death and sudden tragic news linked to Liverpool FC in the last 3 years. Philip Dooley a Liverpool supporter died last year in a road traffic accident, Savannah Calvert also died in a car accident in 2023, while Luiz Diaz father was kidnapped in 2023 too, now Diogo Jota is dead.
Nothing said here today can bring back his life. He had a fulfilling life but should have not left soon. RIP DJ
The car that Luiz Diaz and his brother were in was a Lamborghini and as far as we know, the tire of their car suddenly burst and due to the bursting of the tire, they lost control of their car and went off the road and hit the divider on the side of the road and immediately caught fire and the intensity of the fire was so severe that even their bodies could not be identified. It was confirmed by looking at their license plate number that Luiz Diaz and his brother were sitting in that car. When I first heard this news, I didn't know why I couldn't accept it because I never thought that such a talented footballer's life would end like this. Another thing that made me sad was that with the death of a person, the value of a person completely ends.
Even before the news of his death came on social media, his market value in the transfer market was around 50 million euros but after he died, his value dropped to zero.
Now we can only pray for him.
