Jota had been with his partner since 2012 and they had three children. Off the field, the 28-year-old was known for his private nature and passion for video games, even participating in eSports tournaments.

Jota was in a Lamborghini with his brother Andre Silva on the A52 highway on the morning of 3/7, about 110 km west of Valladolid, Spain, when the accident occurred. The car reportedly blew a tire before veering off the road and catching fire. Both Jota and Silva, a player for the Portuguese second-division team Penafiel, died. Police are investigating the cause of the accident.

Jota played for Pacos Ferreira, Atletico Madrid, FC Porto, and Wolves before joining Liverpool in 2020. The 28-year-old scored 65 goals in 182 appearances for the Anfield club, winning the Premier League, FA Cup, and League Cup.
