Investigators reach decision over criminal liability in car crash that killed Diogo Jota and his brother


There was no criminal liability over the crash that led to the death of former Liverpool striker Diogo Jota and his younger brother Andre Silva, Spanish investigators have ruled in court.

Jota and Silva were killed in a car crash in northern Spain on July 3, 2025, when their Lamborghini veered off the A‑52 motorway near Cernadilla.

Following an investigation, a Spanish court has determined that the crash was due to the Lamborghini suffering a blown-out tyre while overtaking a car, before bursting into flames upon hitting a barrier in the middle of the carriageway.
