Kostas Tsimikas Unveils Tattoo Honoring Diogo Jota’s Legacy
Less than four weeks following the devastating car crash that claimed the life of Diogo Jota and his sibling Andre Silva, his fellow Liverpool player Kostas Tsimikas has created a meaningful memorial. The club has honored the Portuguese forward by retiring his iconic No. 20 jersey, as the entire squad navigates this period of profound sorrow.
Tsimikas recently showcased a new tattoo on his hand as a personal homage to his close companion. The design سمات the poignant phrase “Wish you were here” alongside the numeral 20. This artwork was shared by the Athens-based Puerto Ink studio on July 5, mere days after the tragedy, along with an emotional note that captured the essence of their friendship.
The Studio’s Moving Message on Tsimikas’ Tattoo Tribute
The artists at the tattoo parlor expressed: “Certain connections transcend the sport itself. This one endures eternally. From fellow players to lifelong siblings. Spanning from Greek shores to English fields. From aspirations to the hallowed grounds of Anfield. They climbed the ranks side by side.”
“They shared joys, faced challenges, toiled endlessly, and experienced highs that many only imagine. Yet destiny cruelly intervened, halting one journey prematurely. This piece isn’t merely ink-it’s a blend of affection, heartache, and cherished recollections, etched quietly and displayed with dignity.”
“Sleep peacefully, Jota. Your spirit marches on with us. We’re grateful for allowing us to craft this profound symbol, @tsimikas21. It’s our privilege.”
Tsimikas’ Personal Reflections on Diogo Jota
In a touching post on social media, Tsimikas reminisced: “We joined the squad around the same time, arriving as the fresh faces in town. Together, we savored some of the pinnacle achievements in our professional paths. Right before one of our final matches, you told me, ‘You deliver the pass, I’ll find the net’-and that’s precisely how it unfolded. We shared endless laughs and deep conversations.”
“You stood out as an exceptional athlete, a remarkable individual, and a genuine icon, Diogo. Your memory will endure eternally, cherished by all.”
“My thoughts and support go out to your partner Rute, your sons, your daughter, your loved ones, and everyone who anticipated your return alongside André. The absence of you both will be felt indefinitely.”

As the Reds gear up for their upcoming friendly match against ميلان, the club has introduced additional memorials, including a dedicated fan chant during games and a charity fund in Jota’s name to support road safety initiatives-reflecting the team’s commitment to his enduring impact, with over 10,000 supporters contributing in the first week alone.
