The father-of-three, who married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso 11 days before the accident, died alongside his brother, Andre Silva.

Players from Liverpool and Portugal's national team joined family and friends for the funeral of their teammate Diogo Jota and his brother on Saturday, two days after the siblings died in a car crash in Spain.

The group of Liverpool players was led by Virgil van Dijk and Andy Robertson. The former carried a wreath of Jota’s No.20 shirt, while Robertson held the No.30 which belonged to Silva, a midfielder with Portuguese second-tier side Penafiel.
