Ex-Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is begging the scumbags who STOLE HIS DOG during a home invasion in L.A. to return his beloved pet ... saying he'll pay ANYTHING to get him back.
The 29-year-old English soccer star says his adorable Pomeranian named Lucci was taken from his West Hollywood home on Monday night, along with other personal items.
He posted video of the smashed door where the thieves likely broke in.
"I want to know who took my sh*t. I want to know what's went on. I want to know why they've took my dog.
