Newspapers in Portugal have been paying tribute to Diogo Jota, with the Liverpool star's death dominating the headlines back in his homeland.

The soccer world has been in mourning following the news of Jota and his brother Andre Silva's passing following a car accident in Spain on Thursday.

The pair were understood to have been traveling after the former had been advised not to fly following surgery, with Jota having been due back in training at Liverpool next week.



His teammates, including Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson and former Liverpool stars Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher, have been paying tribute since the news broke, with Reds boss Arne Slot and Jurgen Klopp also paying their respects.

The devastating news came just 10 days after Jota had married his long-term partner Rute back in Portugal - his funeral is now set to take place in the same town on Saturday, following a wake on Friday.

Fans have been laying hundreds of tributes outside Anfield since Thursday, with the club opening books of condolence for supporters to sign over the next few days.

Jota and his brother understandably dominate the front pages of the newspapers back in their homeland, with A Bola printing a full page bearing both of their images along with the poignant message "You'll never walk alone".



Correio da Manha runs with the headline "Tragedy crash in luxury car kills Diogo Jota and brother" and also reports on the player being advised by doctors not to fly back to England following surgery on his lung.

Diario Noticias leads with a picture of Jota playing for Portugal, along with the tagline "The boy who preferred to play ball," with further tributes inside.

Jornal de Noticias follows a similar theme, dubbing Jota "The boy from Gondomar in the heart of the world," while also confirming that his funeral will take place at 10 am on Saturday following a wake on Friday.



O Jogo dedicates its entire front page to Jota and his brother alongside the headline "Eternal pain." It also goes on to say: "The tragic death of the Gondomar brothers, in a violent road accident in Spain, plunged football into deep mourning."

Record carries the simple headline "Jota, from all of us," before going on to write: "Liverpool star suffered a fatal car accident in Spain

The world unites in grief."

Finally, Publico carries an image of Jota celebrating after winning the Premier League title with Liverpool, along with the headline: "Diogo Jota: The little player who became a giant."
