Chelsea players donate part of their World Cup prize money to the families of Diogo Jota and his brother.
Chelsea will donate part of their huge Club World Cup prize money to the families of Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva. According to The Athletic, the English club's players have decided to donate a portion of the money they received for winning the Cup in the US to the families of the two young men who died in a car crash in Spain on July 3 .
The World Cup victory earned Chelsea approximately €14 million, €430,000 per player. The players will donate a similar amount to the families of the two Portuguese players who tragically died on July 3 in Zamora. The Premier League will pay tribute to the two players during the first matchday of the season, which begins tomorrow: a minute's silence will be observed on all pitches, while Liverpool—the team Diogo Jota once played for—will unveil a mosaic in their memory during tomorrow's match against Bournemouth. The Reds have retired the number 20, his number, for the first time in their history from the first team, youth teams, and the women's team.
THE CASE
A Lamborghini speeding off and a tire burst: that's how Diogo Jota died.
