Diogo Jota.

In meetings all morning and check my phone to see 70+ WhatsApp messages. Was hoping it was new signing or similar talk from various groups but it's this.

So sad, I'm genuinely cut up.
 
So sorry to hear the sad news this morning. I thought Diogo was one of the best to ever pull on a Wolves shirt. Condolences to his newly wed wife and 3 kids. Not sure what family his brother has, but sad for him too
 
I just recalled that I called him a rude word last time we played Liverpool and he dived looking for a penalty. I'm sorry, I didn't really mean it
No conviction smh

(I hope this isn’t in poor taste)
 
Been at a work training day all day, only just seen the news. I feel numb, absolutely tragic.

One of my favourite ever Wolves player - to be taken so young leaving a family behind is incredibly sad.

Hard to know what else to say really.
 
Thanks for the memories Diogo Jota... My mate called me this morning and said, 'did you here the news about Jota?' I thought he was going to say he was coming back, then the bombshell.
 
I know how I feel and I can't begin to understand the grief his family are going through with his loss as well as his brother. There simply aren't words. Ruben said it all with his post. RIP Diogo...thank you so much for the memories.

Exactly my experience.
As the final meeting ended a utd fan asked if I'd seen the news. My workmates know what wolves means to me so knew how deep this news would hurt.
Fuck 😭
 
Driving from Porto to Santander to catch a ferry as he'd been advised not to fly. Tire blew out while overtaking. So fucking awful.
 
I don’t even know where to begin with this and there’s nothing I can say that will add to the wonderful comments across this forum and the wider online community.

Thank you, Diogo, for the memories.

It breaks my heart that his children won’t be able to grow up listening to their father tell them stories of what it was like to win trophies doing what he loved or what it was like to represent their national team and what it was like to play alongside players like Cristiano Ronaldo.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Diogo and Andre.
 
I saw the news this morning on here, then was in meetings all day in London with a feeling of numbness over me, it was only when I heard it described in words on the radio that it really sunk in. It felt more real then and I broke down.

Such a devastating tragedy, he was clearly such a good man with a fantastic football attitude, always 100% and always would give a bit back.

That game at St. Andrews where they thought they could kick him out the game, but he just gave it back was one of my favourites, it showed what kind of man he was.

And then those hat tricks in Europe and against Leicester, his part in Raul's goal at White Hart Lane and of course that goal against United that sent us ALL wild.

But not only that, he had a superb attitude to life, marrying his long term girlfriend, his love for his children so clear, and those geeky qualities of being the no.1 at FIFA in the world and playing Football Manager just like I would as a young kid.

He was a good guy.

Rest in peace Diogo.
 
The first time we lost Jota (to Liverpool) I was left heartbroken, selfishly just because I wouldn't see him again in Wolves shirt. At that time nobody could have predicted we'd lose him twice... This time my heart is breaking for his family. Just horrible for his wife and children.💔

Edited to delete Celtiña’s post as I hope it was a mis-translation and don’t want to hold him to it after he’s deleted it.
