"Liverpool have released images of a permanent memorial that is to be unveiled at Anfield in tribute to Diogo Jota and his brother, Andre Silva. Titled Forever 20, the memorial features a flowing heart sculpture inspired by Jota's goal celebration. The numbers 20 and 30, Jota's and Silva's shirt numbers respectively, can also be seen from different angles."
"It will include the lyrics of the song Liverpool fans continue to sing in honour of Jota and is regarded as a celebration of the bond between the brothers, who died in a car accident last July. Liverpool will announce when the memorial is to be officially unveiled at a later date, but it will be positioned on 97 Avenue, where thousands of tributes were left to the brothers last year."
"Many of those tributes, including flowers, scarves, cards and banners, will be recycled and incorporated into the stone plinth on which the memorial will sit."
