Diogo Jota’s final post on social media has surfaced following reports of his untimely death.
Spanish and Portuguese outlets claim that the Liverpool forward lost his life in a car accident during the early hours of Thursday.
According to zamora24horas, the 28-year-old and his brother, Andre – also a footballer – were both involved in the fatal crash, which took place in Zamora, a province in northwestern Spain.
Authorities at the scene included the Traffic Civil Guard, the Provincial Fire Brigade of Zamora, and the Emergency Coordination Centre (CCU) of Health Emergencies.
Additionally, a Medical Emergency Unit (UME) and medical professionals from the Mombuey Health Centre’s Primary Care team were deployed.
A statement read: “The 1-1-2 Castilla y León operations room received several calls reporting a vehicle accident at Km. 65 of the A-52, in the municipality of Cernadilla, Zamora.
A car was reported to have been involved in an accident and the vehicle was on fire. 1-1-2 notified the Zamora Traffic Police, the Zamo.”
Jota’s passing comes only weeks after he celebrated his wedding.
He tied the knot with Rute Cardoso last month, following a long-term relationship that began in 2012.
Rute is the mother of their three children.
Jota had proposed to her in July 2022, and the couple officially married on June 22, 2025.
The couple shared their special day with followers on Instagram, posting a joint update to mark the occasion.
The video of their wedding is accompanied with the caption: “A day we will never forget.”
Jota made the move to Liverpool from Wolves during the summer of 2020.
During his time with the Reds, he netted 65 goals in 182 appearances and played a key role in their Premier League title triumph last season.
On the international stage, the Portuguese forward also lifted the FA Cup and EFL Cup with Liverpool, and secured two Nations League titles with his national side.
