Are the owners paying up full length of Jota’s contract plus something for the kids?
Awesome if this is the case
We had class owners anyways, but another positive notch for them if this is true.
{Ed001's Note - yes, they are creating a college fund for the kids, as well as paying up his contract.}

Were not United.
{Ed077's Note - not everything is about football rivalry.

Outstanding. I've been critical in past of ownership + people they had running club but that is absolutely brilliant thing to do. shows they not just business people but good people 1st and foremost. V proud of club for doing that because not every club would do that make no mistake.

Classy gesture from the club.

And Man U are not their owners.
There has been some lovely tributes to Jota from ManU fans and some supportive messages on here.
ManU fans are better than their owners.
I’m very pleased to hear about the college funds for the kids as well as the contract.

I'm sure the club will do all they can to support his family.

Well said Ed077.
Now is not the time for sniping at our rivals. There have been many messages of support from all over the world including Manchester United and their fans. The way they or another club go about their business should be kept separate from what has happened to Diogo and Andre. I commend the club for their actions in supporting the family of Diogo.

Oasis tribute to jota was a class touch to the song live forever. this is bigger than football!

I have seen some posters asking if a stand can be named after Diogo. My humble opinion is this may be not likely to happen. But I agree with retiring the number 20 in his honour. Only to be resurrected if one of his sons proves to be a top footballer and was sign for our great club.

Who knows how Man Utd or any other club would deal with a similar situation, let's all just hope that we never have to find out and leave it at that.

I have a question - I assume players are insured so will Liverpool and player family will get insurance amount for loss of Jota.
