Joao Felix pays an emotional tribute to Diogo Jota, describing his close friend and Portugal teammate as someone who will always be part of football history. This was part of the waves of tributes following Jota’s tragic death on 3rd July at the age of 28.

Felix, now with Al Nassr and visibly emotional, highlighted the deep bond they shared: Jota was “one of my best friends in the national team” and part of their close-knit group.

He expressed how every time players step onto the pitch, they’ll carry Jota’s memory with them, saying, “After that day, every time we go on the field we will remember him and play in part for him.”.

Joao Felix delivered these remarks while in Hong Kong with Al Nassr for the Saudi Super Cup. This comment came shortly after his recent transfer from Chelsea. The deal was reportedly worth up to £43.7 million, with an annual salary around $10 million.
