On behalf of the entire Derby County community — including players, staff, and supporters — we extend our sincerest condolences to Liverpool Football Club, Diogo’s family, friends, teammates, and fans around the world.
Diogo Jota was more than just a gifted athlete; he was a passionate and dedicated professional whose commitment to the sport inspired many. Throughout his career, his tireless work ethic, technical brilliance, and infectious enthusiasm on the pitch earned him admiration not only from Liverpool supporters but from football fans everywhere. His contributions to the game will be remembered with great respect and fondness.
We recognize the immense loss Liverpool FC has suffered. Diogo was an integral part of the team’s recent successes and embodied the spirit and values that define the club. His presence brought energy and skill that elevated those around him, and his absence leaves a void that will be deeply felt.
At times like this, the football community must come together in solidarity, supporting each other through grief and honoring the memory of those who have touched our lives. We stand with Liverpool, united in mourning and remembrance, as we reflect on the impact Diogo had on and off the field.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this profoundly difficult time.
