In an emotional and unexpected turn, Diogo Jota’s father has spoken publicly for the first time since his son’s tragic passing — revealing that he experienced a vivid and deeply unsettling dream the night after the funeral. The content of the dream has left fans across Portugal and the UK stunned, tearful, and searching for meaning.
“He Walked Toward Me… But Not Alone”
Speaking softly in an exclusive interview at the family home in Massarelos, Mr. Jota described a dream that felt, in his words, “more real than any moment I’ve lived.”

“Diogo was there. He looked like himself — same haircut, same smile — but there was something different. He was… glowing, somehow.”
The most shocking part? Diogo wasn’t alone.
“He was holding hands with a small boy. I’d never seen that child before. But Diogo looked at me and said, ‘He’s safe now, Dad. I brought him with me.’”
While some see the dream as a product of a grieving father’s mind, others are calling it a spiritual message — even suggesting that the unnamed child could symbolize another soul saved or guided by Jota in his final moments.
“It wasn’t just a dream,” Mr. Jota said firmly.“I believe my son was trying to tell me something — that his death wasn’t the end. That he’s still doing good… wherever he is.”
Social media erupted after the interview aired in a short televised clip across Portuguese channels and quickly made its way to international outlets:
“Whether symbolic or spiritual, it’s beautiful.”“I never believed in afterlife signs… until now.”“Diogo Jota bringing a child with him in a dream? That image will stay with me forever.”
Grief often brings dreams — but some dreams linger longer than others. In the quiet after tragedy, Diogo Jota’s father has offered the world a moment of reflection, mystery, and even hope.
And whether real, imagined, or something in between, the dream has become part of the legacy of a player whose spirit may just live on in ways no one expected.
