Wolverhampton Wanderers' Portuguese superstar Diogo Jota recently bid goodbye to the club after a prolific two-year stint. However, his move to Liverpool was the only headline the player's name appeared in this summer. The 24-year-old forward's second farewell to Wolves, this time as an ex-player, turned even more heartfelt with a tribute from the club's passionate supporters.
Jota's impressive tally of 16 goals and eight assists in 45 games across all competitions last season was eclipsed by the unconditional love he received from the Wolves faithful. So, it came as no surprise that the supporters organized a memorable send-off for the Portuguese international, whose market value stands at a staggering 41.5m.
The Wolves supporters, known for their innovative and artistic tribute acts, channeled their creativity once more. They decorated the Wolves Stadium with a massive banner, reminiscent of a similar tifo they organized back in September 2020, when Jota extended his stay at the club. At the time, he stated that he couldn't turn down the opportunity to "walk in fields of gold," referring to the club's iconic color and the song "You'll Never Walk Alone," a moment that ignited the spark for the creative tifos.
Another banner placed elsewhere in the stadium read, "And when you walk, you walk alone, we'll remember you when you walk in fields of gold." It appears that the Wolves supporters knew what a heartstring-pulling gesture it would be for the Portuguese player, who left a piece of his heart in the club.
Jota, to his credit, responded gracefully on Instagram, thanking the club, the fans, and everyone involved with Wolverhampton Wanderers during his time there. This poetic farewell sets a new benchmark for player tribute movements, and one can only hope that the talented forward's career blossoms even further amidst such loving fandom.
