Daniel Sturridge’s has offered £30,000 to whomever reunites him with his dog.
The former Liverpool striker’s Los Angeles home was broken into, with thieves taking his beloved pet along with other items.
And Sturridge made an emotional plea on social media for someone to return Lucci.
The 29-year-old posted a video on his Instagram account after the incident on Tuesday.
In the short clip, broken glass from a door where thieves gained access to the house, is shown.
The England international said: “Listen, somebody has broken into the house in LA and took my dog from the house.
“Listen, whoever knows who broke into my crib, I’ll pay you anything.
“I’m dead serious. I wanna know who took my s***. I wanna know what’s went on. I wanna know why they’ve took my dog!
“I wanna know why they’ve took bags from upstairs. I wanna know what the f*** is going on. I’m dead serious.
“Something has gotta change, like, how can you break into a house in LA and take somebody’s dog? Are you crazy? You’ve come into a house to take a dog. Somebody please find my dog, I’ll pay anything I’m dead serious, I just want my dog back.”
Sturridge then went on to offer a reward in a follow up video.
His dog is a Pomeranian with Husky markings on his fur.
He normally accompanies Sturridge on his travels and has an Instagram page with more than 2,000 followers.
