Lisbon, Portugal — July 16, 2025

In a new revelation sending shockwaves through both his family and his former club, Diogo Jota’s widow has reportedly discovered a hidden folder on the late footballer’s personal laptop — titled simply “May 2020” — containing a confidential list of secret assets and holdings no one knew existed.

The discovery was made while Jota’s wife was sorting through the device to archive personal files and family photos. The folder was buried deep within the system, protected by encryption and not visible through normal search methods. A security consultant hired to recover old files for preservation stumbled upon it accidentally.

What they found inside has stunned everyone — including senior staff at Liverpool FC.

According to sources close to the family, the folder contained a neatly formatted document detailing multiple offshore accounts, private investments, undeclared properties, and at least two business ventures under aliases — none of which were mentioned in Jota’s official estate filings or known to club financial advisors.

“Some of these assets date back to mid-2020, during his early period at Liverpool,” said a source familiar with the document. “There are millions unaccounted for — and it raises serious questions.”

Liverpool FC, upon learning of the revelation, issued a brief internal statement acknowledging the matter and confirming cooperation with authorities “to ensure all player-related contracts and disclosures remain compliant with club and league regulations.”

Jota’s widow, described as “shocked and betrayed,” has reportedly contacted legal and financial experts to audit the full scope of what was uncovered. According to one insider, her immediate concern was not the money — but the secrecy.

“She felt like she didn’t know who he really was,” the source said. “It’s not just the assets — it’s the fact that he kept them hidden, even from her.”

The findings come amid a cascade of posthumous revelations following Jota’s untimely death, including a secret diary entry, a disputed inheritance claim, mysterious messages, and hidden recordings.

This latest twist may have legal implications not only for the estate, but potentially for international tax authorities and club oversight bodies.

As investigations continue, the image of Diogo Jota — once defined by brilliance on the pitch — is now clouded by a growing list of unanswered questions off it.
