Liverpool will continue to honour Diogo Jota after the striker’s tragic passing earlier this month — and the club have announced several permanent tributes.

Jota and his brother Andre Silva died in a car crash in Spain three weeks ago and the club has been in a state of mourning ever since.

Fans have visited from all over the world to pay their respects with flowers, shirts and written messages outside Anfield.

And now Jota will be forever remembered outside the stadium with a permanent sculpture.

The design has not yet been decided and it will be joined by floral tributes in all club sites including the training ground and women’s team HQ.

There will also be a ‘Forever 20’ emblem printed on the new Liverpool kits which are set to be released on August 1 by adidas. This will remain in place all season.

Furthermore, if supporters want to get the name Diogo J and number 20 on the back of their new shirts, all profits from the printing will go to the LFC Foundation.

The foundation has committed to creating a grassroots football programme in Diogo’s name.

The main commemoration will be a special fan mosaic and minute’s silence on the first home Premier League game of the season when the champions take on Bournemouth at Anfield on Friday, August 1.
