Latest news: the police have just announced the identity of a man directly connected to the cause of the tragic accident of Diogo Jota with many shocking evidence.
In a surprising case that shocked the world football community, the Spanish authorities identified a man directly connected to the catastrophic road accident in which the star of Liverpool and Portugal Diogo Joata and his younger brother, André Silva, on July 3, 2025, have lost their lives. The announcement, published by the Civil Guard of Zamora, in Spain, revealed disturbing evidence indicating that a previously unleashed factor contributed to the tragedy, which increased the pain due to the premature disappearance of the two brothers.
The accident occurred in the early hours of July 3, 2025, on the A-52 highway near Cernadilla, a small town in the province of Zamora, near the border with Portugal. Jota, 28, and his brother André, 26, a professional footballer from Penafiel, a Portuguese Second Division team, traveled aboard a Lamborghini Huracan when the vehicle suffered a catastrophic break of a tire. The car left the road, turned upwards several times and caught fire, without leaving any survival. Despite the rapid intervention of emergency services, including the Zamora Traffic Police, firefighters and medical teams, both brothers were declared dead at the act. The intensity of the fire, which extended to the surrounding vegetation, has complicated the first efforts to identify the victims and determine the precise circumstances of the accident.
Until now, the predominant version, backed by the preliminary reports of the police and the testimonies, suggested that the tire explosion had occurred while Lamborghini was advancing to another vehicle, causing the loss of driver control. However, the latest discoveries have changed attention to a man whose actions are believed to have played a crucial role in the sequence of events that led to the accident. Although the police have not made the name of the public man, citing investigations in Progreso, he confirmed that he is a local resident of the Zamora region and that he was in the A-52 at the time of the accident. The authorities described the evidence as “shocking” and “irrefutable”, although they have omitted specific details waiting for additional analysis.
According to sources close to investigations, the participation of man is linked to an interaction with the vehicle that transported Joa and his brother a few moments before the accident. Eye witnesses reported having seen a vehicle to behave irregularly on the road, which could have contributed to the high -speed maneuver that preceded the tire decomposition. Police compiled physical evidence on the scene, including debris and tire signs, as well as digital data from nearby traffic cameras, which are analyzed to rebuild the moments before the tragedy. Forensic experts are also examining Lamborghini’s remains to determine whether external factors, such as the hazards of the road or the interference of another vehicle, have aggravated the situation.

Publications X requested the immediate diffusion of the identity of man and the complete diffusion of evidence, testifying the deep emotional impact that Jota’s death had in the football community. The Portuguese Football Federation and Liverpool FC have made statements in which they express their pain and boost respect for current investigations, which underlines the need for clarity and responsibility.
Jota’s death, who took place only ten days after his marriage to his fellow Cardoso as a lifetime, left an indelible brand to those who met him. The couple, who had three young children, shared messages moved to social networks a few hours before the accident, with a jota described as “the luckiest man in the world” for having married routing. The tragedy aroused the tribute of the teammates, including Cristiano Ronaldo, who described Jota as a “warrior” and a “brother”, and Liverpool, who announced the final retirement of Jota 20 shirt number 20 in his honor.
While research continues, doubts remain on the exact nature of the participation of man and his intentional or negligent nature. Police promised a full report in a few days, which will be submitted to the Court of Zamora for new measures.
