Breaking news: Diogo Jota’s wife makes final decision on dividing assets with her husband’s family, player’s parents strongly object after hearing the amount of money received
In a dramatic twist just months after Liverpool star Diogo Jotaโs tragic death, his widow Rute Cardoso has reportedly made her final decision on how her late husbandโs multi-million-pound fortune will be divided โ and the outcome has left Jotaโs parents in a state of shock.
According to sources close to the family, Rute has officially signed documents outlining the split of assets between herself, the coupleโs children, and Jotaโs parents. But when the playerโs grieving mother and father learned of the exact amount allocated to them, they allegedly reacted furiously.
โThey feel betrayed,โ one insider told the press. โAfter raising him and standing by his career from childhood, they never imagined the share would be this small.โ
The move has sparked a major rift between Rute and Jotaโs family, with relatives claiming they were kept in the dark about the legal process. Behind closed doors, heated arguments are said to have erupted, leaving both sides unable to reach reconciliation.
The controversy comes as speculation swirls around Jotaโs will, which some reports suggest may contain clauses previously unknown to the public โ including provisions for a mysterious woman linked to the footballerโs private life.
While Rute insists she is acting in the best interests of her children, critics argue the decision has created irreparable damage between the widow and her in-laws.
For now, Jotaโs estate remains in limbo as legal experts warn his parents could attempt to challenge the will in court.
โThe battle for Jotaโs fortune is only just beginning,โ one legal source confirmed. โAnd the truth about who he left his money to might shock everyone in England.โ
