The on-pitch tribute is the latest gesture from the club to honor the memory of the beloved Portuguese international.

The special "Diogo J. 20 ❤️" tribute badge is a simple yet powerful white circle, placed centrally on the chest between the kit supplier's logo and the club crest. Inside the circle is the name 'DIOGO J.' above his number 20. In a touching detail, the '0' in the number 20 has been replaced with a heart symbol.

This on-pitch remembrance follows the club's unprecedented decision to "immortalise" the No. 20 shirt. As previously reported, Liverpool announced that the number 20 will be retired across all levels of the club - including the men's, women's, and academy teams - to ensure Jota's legacy is permanently enshrined in the club's history.
