Summary

www.kelloggsfc.com In this special and very sad episode of Football For Kids, we remember the life of the amazing footballer Diogo Jota, who has tragically passed away. Diogo wasn’t just a brilliant footballer - he was a kind, caring, and hard-working person who inspired so many with his talent and his heart. From playing in Portugal as a young boy to becoming a star at Wolves, Liverpool, and for his country Portugal, we look back on the incredible moments he gave to football - and the love he gave to the people around him. This episode is a gentle tribute to Diogo’s life, the joy he brought to the game, and the way he showed us all what truly matters - family, kindness, and playing with passion.
