Footballer fatally accident
“So cruel”: Liverpool captain van Dijk mourns the loss of Jota
The accident death of the Portuguese national soccer player Diego Jota also takes virgil van Dijk with him. The Dutchman thinks primarily of the family.
Liverpool Captain Virgil van Dijk also publicly mourned his teammate after Diogo Jota’s accidental death. “I can’t believe it, does not want to believe it. Absolutely destroyed and totally incredulously,” wrote the Dutch in an Instagram post: “What a person, what a player, but above all what an incredible family man.”
The Portuguese Jota “means” so much “and will” always do so “at the English football champion FC Liverpool, added van Dijk. But the loss of Jota and his brother André Silva for the closest confidants is even more difficult: “The fact that their family loses two sons, a husband and a father is simply unimaginable. So cruel and unfair.”
Jota and his brother had probably strayed from the road in the Northern Spanish province of Zamora on Thursday in the northern Spanish province of Zamora. The car broke through a guardrail and caught fire. The two brothers had no chance.
What happens to the jersey number 20?
In England there is speculation that FC Liverpool Jotas jersey number 20 is no longer awarded in honor of the deceased. The club wrote in a homage to the Portuguese that number 20 was “immortalized”.
Van Dijk should support the idea. “Forever a champion, forever number 20. It was a privilege on which the square was at your side and your friend was away,” wrote the 33-year-old. “We will miss you incredibly and never forget you. Your legacy will live on, we will take care of it!”
