Proudly Irish and family-run since 1989 Proudly Irish and family-run since 1989
In the summer of 2025, Diogo Jota had the world at his feet. A star striker for Liverpool FC and the Portuguese national team, he had just won the Premier League and Nations League before getting married to his childhood sweetheart. But just 11 days after tying the knot to Rute Cardoso, tragedy struck. As Diogo and brother Andre Silva drove back through Spain to catch a ferry back to the UK, their hired Lamborghini crashed on the motorway. Both brothers were killed. What followed was a huge outpouring of grief - both from the family and the wider footballing world.

This intimate biography of Diogo Jota tells the inside story of his career and life before it was tragically cut short. The author interviews his family, team-mates and managers to produce a richly-detailed portrait of a brilliant footballer and much-loved man.

His widow recounts in agonising detail how she sent her husband video clips of their wedding on the night of the crash, becoming increasingly worried as the hours passed without a response. Team-mates including Virgil van Dijk and Jordan Henderson pay tribute to someone they called a friend, while managers such as Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot also have their say. This heavyweight biography promises to be a must-read for Liverpool supporters and the wider football community.
