LIVERPOOL footballer Diogo Jota has died in a car crash in Spain after a Lamborghini he was travelling in veered off the road and burst into flames following a suspected tyre blowout.

Tributes from the football world and beyond flooded in for the 28-year-old father of three, pictured, who had married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso just 11 days ago.

Jota was found dead alongside his brother Andre Silva following the crash on the A-52 in Palacios de Sanabria near the city of Zamora at 12.40am on Thursday.

Police said they were investigating the possibility that the Lamborghini left the road because of a tyre blowout while overtaking, and a source from the government sub-delegation in Zamora confirmed "a possible speeding incident" was being looked at.

Liverpool said the club was "devastated" by the news and that it was an "unimaginable loss".
