“Man, I can’t believe it, I don’t want to believe it. It’s absolutely devastated and completely unbelievable.
“What a human, what a player, but most importantly, an incredible family man.
“You mean so much to all of us, and you will always be! Your family will lose two sons, your husband and father can’t imagine. It’s so cruel and unfair. My heart is broken for all of your beautiful family and for your children.
“Champion forever, 20th forever. It was a privilege to stand by your side on the pitch and have your friend left it.
“We miss you beyond words and will never forget you. Your legacy will live on. We confirm it!
“Resting with the perfect peace Diogo and Andre.”
Van Dijk and Jota succeeded together in Liverpool
Van Dik and Diogo Jota have been sharing the pitch as Liverpool teammates since 2020 and have been tying strong bonds on and off the field while they are together at Anfield. Over the course of five years, the pair appeared together in 131 matches.
Their partnership has contributed greatly to the success of the Liverpool era. During this period, the Reds lifted the FA Cup and two League Cups. Jota often plays a critical role in the club’s domestic cups, with Vandic pinning the backline with consistency and mild authority.
Their time also saw Liverpool secure a record 20th English league title.
Beyond their achievements, Van Dijk and Jota developed a true friendship built on mutual respect, and a common desire to compete at the highest level of Liverpool, causing Jota to even more pain for Van Dijk.
