Special mural completed in honour of Diogo Jota near Anfield

According to Liverpool official website: “A special mural tribute to Diogo Jota nearby Anfield, created by artist John Culshaw, has now been completed.

One of several fan-led homages to the Portuguese, who died in a road traffic accident alongside his brother Andre Silva earlier this month, the piece depicts Jota in a moment of celebration.

It is located on the exterior of the Halfway House pub, just a short walk from the Reds’ home stadium, where Jota enjoyed so many moments of joy after his arrival from Wolverhampton Wanderers in September 2020.

“As Liverpool fans we know how to deal with tragedy and show our appreciation to someone who has given us so much,” said Culshaw.

“I picked this image to paint because it shows Diogo sending love out to the fans and by immortalising him in our city, it shows that we are sending the love right back.

“Diogo has given us so many memories, it’s only right that he will remain our number 20 forever.””
