Diogo Jota's widow sends message to Liverpool as family make emotional appearance at Anfield for game between Reds and his other former club Wolves

Diogo Jota's widow, Rute, has thanked Liverpool Football Club after her family returned to Anfield for Saturday's game between the Reds and Wolves.

Dinis and Duarte, two of Jota and Rute Cardoso's three children, took to the pitch in Merseyside before the 3pm kick-off on Saturday afternoon as Arne Slot's men took on Wolves - who sold the Portuguese to Liverpool in 2020.

The fixture marked the first meeting between Liverpool and Wolves - the late Portugal international's former clubs - since Jota, 28, and his brother, André Silva, 25, died in a fatal car crash in Spain earlier this year.
