Posting on Instagram, the current Ajax player wrote an emotional tribute to the much-loved forward whose death has left a mark on the footballing world:
"I really can't believe what has happened today and all I can think about is Diogo and Andre's family.
"It's unimaginable the pain you all must be suffering. All of our prayers, love and support are with you now and forever.
"Jots it was a pleasure to share a pitch with you but more importantly a friendship. All the laughs we had off the pitch and trying to find ways to wind Milly up and get him fined, which we never could.
"Taking pictures of me asleep on the bus travelling then sending them to me later. You always wanted to have a laugh and were a pleasure to be around.
"I know how much Rute and your family meant to you and I know you will always be looking down on them. Thank you for everything you brought into this world, we will all miss you.
"Rest in peace along with your brother Andre. Love ya mate. YNWA."
