The biggest football story of the week has undoubtedly been the robbery of Daniel Sturridge's pomeranian Lucci from his new home in Los Angeles. Sturridge made an emotional plea for the return of Lucci yesterday on Instagram, and promised a handsome reward if she was returned safe and sound.
Yo, somebody please find my dog. I’ll pay anything, I’m dead serious. I want my dog back, man
A video then surfaced on Twitter and Periscope in the last few hours from LA that appears to show Lucci safe and sound, in the front seat of a car, held by a child.

The man filming the video repeatedly says 'I've found your dog', which clears up any uncertainty that he may or may not have found the dog. KillaFlame tweeted the video at Sturridge, as well as the follow up confirmation statement.
Man i got him

In some of the greatest news we have ever heard, it has since been confirmed that Lucci and Sturridge have been reunited.
