Former Liverpool footballer Daniel Sturridge has defiantly claimed he did pay the person who found his lost dog Lucci after he was told by a Los Angeles court to pay the £22,000 reward he previously promised.
Sturridge made a plea on social media after his beloved Pomeranian dog named Lucci, who is worth up to £4,000, was stolen after his Los Angeles house was burgled in July 2019, with bags also taken.
The footballer promised a reward of £22,400 ($30,000) to whoever found the pet but Foster Washington, a local musician known as KILLA FAME who found the dog, filed a lawsuit in May stating Sturridge still owed him the reward money.
