I am deeply saddened by such tragic news.Diego Jota leaves behind 3 children and a wife of 11 days, it must be absolutely devastating for them.Lets not forget his brother also perished.
My thoughts and prayers go out to their family and friends at this terribly sad time.

Heard lots of people on social media etc asking why didn't he just get a flight from Porto, instead of driving to Santander, its a major vehicle terminal to the UK,, done it loads. According to rumours/clickbait etc, apparently he had a small medical procedure regarding his lungs. That alone, would bar home from flying. Whether this is the reason, who knows. Just sad really.

Such very sad news. His brother was also a pro footballer in Portugal tier 2.
Tragic news. Very very sad.

Yep, that's my understanding, a medical problem making it unsafe for him to fly.

The poor bloke was driving his brother to the ferry in his Lamborghini and judging by the state of the wreckage he wasn't hanging about. Unfortunately these overpaid footballers tend to buy ultra fast hypercars that are very difficult to drive - especially at speed. Reports suggest a tyre blew, but whether this was the cause of his accident or the result of the impact is not yet clear. Very sad circumstances nevertheless.

That's a long old drive, absolute tradegy.

Such a tragedy for the family to lose 2 young talented boys. I thought Anita was the model professional. Not always a starter for Liverpool but gave 100% and scored vital goals for them. A time to show solidarity with the Liverpool fans. I think the idea that we join in singing “You’ll never walk alone”at the Charity Shield is a great one.
