Dozens of Portuguese from the president to a childhood friend grieved for Diogo Jota in his hometown on Friday after the Liverpool star and his brother's death in a car crash.

Mohamed Salah has posted a tribute to Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva. On X he wrote: I am truly lost for words. Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break.

“Futebol Clube Penafiel expresses its deepest sympathy for the tragic death of Andre Silva and his brother Diogo Jota, victims of a road accident in the last few hours,” the club said.
