In an explosive and unexpected development, a woman appeared unannounced at Liverpool FC headquarters this morning claiming she had been in a secret 9-year relationship with the late footballer Diogo Jota — and presented five audio recordings as alleged proof of private conversations in which Jota discussed the sharing of assets, financial promises, and hidden arrangements.
The incident has sent shockwaves through both the Jota family and the football world, raising serious questions about what Jota may have kept hidden in his personal life — even from those closest to him.
Who Is the Woman?
The woman, identified only as “M.”, is said to be in her early 30s and was escorted into the building by private security after presenting what she claimed were legal documents and digital files addressed to “club legal representatives.” Sources within the club say staff were “stunned and visibly uncomfortable” as she calmly explained her reason for being there.
“She walked in like she belonged there,” one staff member told The Mirror. “Then she said she’d been in a relationship with Diogo Jota since 2015 — and that she had proof.”
The Audio Recordings: Jota's Voice, Undeniable
The woman played segments of five audio recordings on a private laptop for senior legal personnel. Club sources confirm that the voice strongly resembles Diogo Jota’s and includes phrases such as:
-
“What we agreed stays between us. If something happens, you’ll get what’s yours.”
-
“It’s not just about the money. You were there when no one else was.”
-
“If I can’t name you publicly, at least I’ll secure things privately.”
The most shocking moment came in the final recording, in which Jota allegedly says:
“Even my family doesn’t know about this. And they won’t — not unless I’m gone.”
Wife “Devastated” — Legal Team Demands Full Review
A spokesperson for Jota’s widow confirmed she was informed of the woman’s appearance just hours after the incident, and that she is “completely blindsided” by the claim.
“This is deeply distressing for the family, who are already navigating immense grief. If the recordings are real — and if this woman’s claims are valid — it means Diogo led a double life none of us ever suspected.”
The family’s legal team has requested immediate access to the full recordings and is preparing to file a motion to delay the final execution of Jota’s will, pending clarification.
Liverpool FC’s Position
The club released a short, carefully worded statement:
“We are aware of an individual who visited our headquarters today with materials regarding the late Diogo Jota. As this is now a matter of private legal concern, we will not be commenting further.”

Clips of the woman’s appearance outside Liverpool FC — including moments where she can be heard saying “I’m not here to fight, just to be acknowledged” — have already surfaced online. A 3-minute clip recorded by a passerby is circulating on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), amassing over 12 million views in 4 hours.
What Comes Next?
With the audio under forensic analysis and family lawyers preparing a full legal response, many are now wondering:
-
Was Jota supporting two families?
-
Do the payments listed in his will connect to this woman?
-
And most of all — what else has yet to come out?
This is a rapidly developing story. Full transcripts of the audio are expected to be reviewed by legal teams in the next 48 hours.
