🗣️ Dembélé on how he presses opponents: "You can’t give them time to pass, because if they have time to make a good pass, the press is useless."
"They might find a teammate in a great position, so I do everything I can not to give them even a second to think or to make the perfect pass."
"The moment they get the ball and I’m nearby, they have to react immediately — if not, I’m already there!"
"And actually, I enjoy pressing. It’s funny because every time the goalkeeper clears the ball, I stick a foot in and shout at him: ‘Ah, lucky you!’ Honestly, it’s a real pleasure."

I am truly lost for words. Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break. Team mates come and go but not like this. It’s going to be extremely difficult to accept that Diogo won’t be there when we go back. My thoughts are with his wife, his children, and of course his parents who suddenly lost their children. Those close to Diogo and his brother Andre need all the support they can get. They will never be forgotten.
Everyone at the Premier League is shocked and devastated to learn of the tragic passing of Diogo Jota and his brother Andre. Our sincerest condolences go to Diogo’s family, friends, Liverpool FC, and all their supporters at this heartbreaking time. Football has lost a champion who will be forever missed. We will continue to support our friends and colleagues at the club.

Diogo, your family was your world. They were everything. For Rute, his children, and his parents, all of our hearts are broken. And for Andre as well. Brothers and best friends.
