Wolves induct Jota into club’s Hall of Fame

Wolves have inducted former forward Diogo Jota into their Hall of Fame “in a tribute that honours both his remarkable achievements for the club and the deep impact his passing has had on the footballing world”.

The Portugal international and his 25-year-old brother Andre Silva, who was also a footballer, died in a car crash on 3 July in the Spanish province of Zamora.

Jota moved to Wolves from Atletico Madrid in July 2017 – in a deal which was initially on a season-long loan and then made permanent – before going on to join Liverpool in 2020.

He scored 44 goals in 131 appearances for Wolves and was a key player when they won the Championship title in 2017-18 to earn promotion into the Premier League.

Jota also helped the Midlands club qualify for the Europa League with a seventh-placed finish during their first season back in the top-flight.
