Jordan Henderson was moved to tears as he laid flowers for his friend and former Liverpool team-mate Diogo Jota at Anfield.
The personal note on his floral tribute read: “Rest in peace my friend, along with your brother Andre. We will all miss you.”
Jordan Henderson was Liverpool captain when Diogo Jota joined the club.
On Thursday, Henderson – who left Liverpool in 2023 and now plays for Dutch side Ajax – posted on Instagram: “Jota it was a pleasure to share a pitch with you but more importantly a friendship. All the laughs we had off the pitch and trying to find ways to wind up Milly [Liverpool midfielder James Milner], which we never could.
“Taking pictures of me asleep on the bus travelling and then sending them to me later.
“You always wanted to have a laugh and were a pleasure to be around.
“Thank you for everything you brought into this world, we will all miss you.”
