Chelsea donates Club World Cup bonuses in honor of Diogo Jota and André Silva
Chelsea players have made a noble decision after their victory at the FIFA Club World Cup. According to reports, the team will donate part of the bonuses received to the families of Diogo Jota and André Silva, the recently deceased footballers.
The team, which earned around 14 million euros for their triumph in the tournament, equivalent to about 430,000 euros per player, has chosen to allocate a significant portion of that sum to the families of the Portuguese footballers.
The tragic traffic accident in Zamora, Spain, on July 3rd, shocked the world of football, marking a moment of deep sadness.
The Premier League will also join the tribute to Diogo Jota and André Silva this weekend, with a minute of silence in all matches.
Meanwhile, Liverpool, the club where Jota played, will display a mosaic in his memory during the match against Bournemouth this Friday.
Furthermore, the ‘Reds’ have decided to retire Jota’s number ’20’ from all their categories, an unprecedented gesture in the club’s history.
