FIFA released another episode of the “Letters That Unite” series, this time starring Andy Robertson, who read a letter written by Rute Cardoso.
In the message, Rute recalls the strong friendship between Robertson and Diogo Jota, in addition to the dream they both shared of playing in the 2026 World Cup.
Visibly moved during the reading, the Scottish international assumed that he will carry the memory of his former teammate with him throughout the competition. Robertson assured that he will compete in the World Cup in the United States with Diogo Jota always present in his thoughts.
The moment moved fans and became one of the most memorable episodes in the series promoted by FIFA before the start of the tournament.
Diogo Jota’s wife, Rute Cardoso, has written a letter to Scotland captain Andy Robertson ahead of the World Cup.
She thanks Robertson for his friendship, and for preserving Diogo’s memory. Robertson adds he’ll have Jota at the forefront of his mind.🙏
