In a shocking twist that’s sending shockwaves through football fans and investigators alike, customs records leaked to police show that Diogo Jota — the beloved Portuguese striker who tragically passed away — had been receiving private packages from a woman in Argentina for over 14 months.
Even more disturbing? Every package was labeled with the same handwritten phrase:
“BABY INSIDE — fragile, do not scan.”
The sender's name is redacted in official documents, but sources close to the investigation confirm it was a woman saved in Jota’s contacts only as “M” — the same mysterious “M” he allegedly sent his final voicemail to (not his wife), just minutes before the fatal crash.
💔 The player’s wife, Rute Cardoso, was reportedly left speechless after being shown the contents of one of the last packages. Inside was a printed photo album — titled “For Daddy Only” — with dozens of personal, never-before-seen images, many of them showing a toddler-aged child playing with a red Liverpool jersey and handwritten notes signed “from M & baby”.
When Rute reached the final page, investigators say she simply whispered,
“This changes everything,”
and left the room in tears.
📦 What Were in the Other Packages?
Police sources confirmed that the parcels ranged from children's toys and baby clothes to strange hand-drawn cards addressed “To Papa” — none of which were ever disclosed to Jota’s family or close circle. Some of the toys were branded with logos from Argentina-based stores, raising questions about Jota’s secret life overseas.
🕵️ A Bigger Secret?
This is the second major revelation in under 48 hours following the discovery of a 3-minute final voice note found on Jota’s phone, not sent to his wife but to “M.” Police are now reportedly comparing the child’s face in the album to known records in Portugal and Argentina.
