Tributes will be paid to Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva on Sunday before and during Liverpool 's first match since their deaths. Arne Slot ’s side face Championship club Preston North End at Deepdale in their opening pre-season fixture, 10 days after Jota and Silva died in a car accident in Spain.

Liverpool FC has confirmed it will be permanently retiring the no.20 jersey in honour of Diogo Jota after the star's sudden death rocked the club last week.

Liverpool have officially retired the No. 20 shirt in an emotional tribute to Diogo Jota following the forward's tragic death on July 3. The 28-year-old died alongside his brother, Andre Silva, in the Spanish province of Zamora just 11 days after he married long-term partner Rute Cardoso.
