A very sad news to which the president of the Portuguese Federation Pedro Proença wanted to react. The latter also asked UEFA a minute of silence before this evening match between Spain and Portugal at Euro 2025. His remarks were made by Ball.
«The Portuguese Football Federation and all Portuguese football are completely devastated by the death of Diogo Jota and André Silva this morning in Spain. Much more than a fantastic player, with nearly 50 selections in the national team, Diogo Jota was an extraordinary person, respected by all his teammates and adversaries, a person with contagious joy and a reference within the community. On my behalf and on behalf of the Portuguese Football Federation, I express my most sincere condolences to the family and friends of Diogo and André Silva, as well as to Liverpool FC and FC Penafiel, the clubs where they have evolved respectively. We have lost two champions. The disappearance of Diogo and André Silva represents an irreparable loss for Portuguese football and we will do our best to honor their heritage every day“He said.
