PREPARATIONS have begun for the funeral of Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota as tributes continue to flood in for the Portuguese international following his death in a car crash in Spain.

The father-of-three, who married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso 11 days before the incident, was killed alongside his brother Andre Silva after a Lamborghini they were travelling in burst into flames following a suspected tyre blowout in the early hours of Thursday morning.

Flowers could be seen being carried into a chapel in Porto ahead of the 28-year-old’s funeral - which parish priest at the Igreja Matriz de Gondomar in Sao Cosme, Jose Manuel Macedo, said would begin at 10am on Saturday.

A wake for the brothers took place on Friday afternoon at the nearby Capela da Ressurreicao.

Portuguese Prime Minister Luis Montenegro was one of a number of people to arrive at the chapel for the wake on Friday.

Liverpool Football Club postponed the return of players for preseason following Jota’s death, as a number of players past and present paid tribute.
