The FA will reportedly hold talks with Liverpool with regards to planning a tribute to Diogo Jota at the Community Shield at Wembley next month.

Jota and his brother Andre Silva tragically lost their lives in a car crash in the early hours of Thursday morning.

The 28-year-old was driving through Zamora in northern Spain with his brother Andre Silva in a bid to catch a ferry that would take him back to England to link up with his side ahead of pre-season.

Jota's passing has plunged both his home country and his adopted one into mourning, with Premier League fans travelling to Anfield to pay tribute to the forward.
