❤️🩹 Arne Slot’s open letter to Liverpool Echo touching also on Diogo Jota.
“That only weeks after celebrating together we would lose Diogo is indescribable. More than anything, I want to remember a team-mate, a friend and an incredible human being who touched the lives of thousands of you every time he wore this club’s famous crest.
"In one of the most difficult moments this club has faced, the love, compassion and support shown by the Liverpool family was extraordinary. As I leave this club, it would be remiss of me not to say that the way you honoured Diogo and stood together in his memory will stay with me forever...
"You made me feel welcome from the start and helped me on the path. That is something I cherish.
"Liverpool’s 20th league title belongs to all of us and it will remain an important chapter in its history. For that we should all be proud...
"This club will always judge itself by the biggest honours. That is how it should be. But I also leave knowing the club is exactly where it belongs: amongst Europe’s elite. Securing Champions League football was an important responsibility and one that ensures Liverpool can continue competing at the highest level next season and beyond.
"I leave with complete confidence in what lies ahead."

🚨🔵 BREAKING: Chelsea are closing in on new deal for Moisés Caicedo!
The agreement will be valid until June 2033 with final details being sorted, as @CLMerlo reports.
Caicedo has given green light to #CFC stay for long term.
With these pictures showing the bond we shared, I almost felt I could get away with saying nothing about you leaving. It’s been an honour to be your teammate and your friend. You’ve won it all and you leave as a legend. I’m sure we will meet again.
🚨 Kylian Mbappé to TNT Sports: “I believe Gianluca Prestianni shouldn't come to the Bernabéu, the best stadium in the world”.
“He doesn't deserve it, he shouldn't play”.
Today, as every day, we remember Diogo Jota on what would have been his 29th birthday.
All of our love, thoughts and prayers continue to be with his wife Rute, his children, parents and all of his family and friends, as well as those of his brother, Andre.
Forever in our hearts, forever our number 20 ❤️
One of the biggest days of his career and he’s not playing for Liverpool or against Portugal, but Diogo is still on his mind.
So we must be a bit more empathetic when we talk about the Liverpool team this season, or try a bit. It’s not an excuse but definitely a factor.
