Watch: Wolves fans tell of shock at Diogo Jota's tragic death

Wolves fans laid flowers and scarves outside the Billy Wright Stand following the tragic death of former star Diogo Jota this morning.

Former Wolves forward Diogo Jota has tragically died in a car crash aged just 28. 

The Liverpool attacker was involved in an accident while driving with his brother Andre Silva, who played for Penafiel in the Portuguese second division.

Both brothers died as a result of their car tyre blowing out and the Spanish authorities have now identified Jota and Silva as the two casualties.

Supporters arrived at Molineux shortly after the news of their former star's passing broke, with tributes pouring in online and outside the Billy Wright Stand at Molineux.
