Cristiano Ronaldo has taken to social media to mourn the sudden demise of Diogo Jota, saying “it doesn’t make sense”
Diogo Jota, 28, who is one of the most prominent members of the national team lost his life alongside his brother, André Silva, 26, in a ghastly motor accident in Spain.
The deaths of Jota and his brother Andre Silva, also a professional footballer who played for Penafiel, were announced by the Portuguese Football Federation.
According to reports in Spain, the two men died after a car in which they were travelling crashed in Zamora, Spain.
Reacting, Ronaldo wrote on social media: “It doesn’t make sense. We were just together in the national team, and you had just gotten married. To your family, your wife and your children, I send my condolences and wish them all the strength in the world. I know you will always be with them. Rest in peace, Diogo and André. We will all miss you.”
