Emile Heskey Reveals Surprising Comparison That Unveils Diogo Jota’s Hidden Genius
When Emile Heskey speaks about strikers, you listen.
The former England international, who spent years playing alongside some of the Premier League’s sharpest forwards, knows what makes a goalscorer special.
For Heskey, Diogo Jota, who tragically died in a car crash, alongside his brother, in July 2025, was a very special striker.
‘He was pretty much a complete player to be honest’ Emile Heskey remembers special talent Diogo Jota
“I think what made him so special was just his technical ability and his ability to sniff out a chance,” Heskey tells FourFourTwo on behalf of betideas.com.
“He wasn’t the biggest of lads, but he always gave everything and he was hardworking. He had this low centre of gravity because he wasn’t tall. He could turn and get around defenders and score goals. He was brilliant.”
