Liverpool's Portuguese forward Diogo Jota and his brother have died in a car crash in Spain.
Diogo Jota and his younger brother, Andre Silva, also a professional footballer, died in the crash just after midnight on Thursday, local time on a highway near Spain's northwestern city of Zamora.

Jota made 182 total appearances and scored 65 goals for Liverpool.
Tributes poured in from around the sports world, and hundreds of Liverpool fans gathered at Anfield, home of Liverpool, laying flowers in his memory.
An investigation has been launched into the crash.
The funeral is expected to be held on Saturday in the Portuguese city of Porto.
