Federico Chiesa’s wife Lucia Bramani sent a message to the forward after he scored the decisive goal in Liverpool’s first game of the season.

Chiesa made a cameo appearance from the bench in the 4-2 victory over Bournemouth in the Premier League opener on Friday night.

Goals from Hugo Ekitike, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah, alongside Chiesa, helped Liverpool claim all three points as they began their Premier League title defence.



The Reds were all-square at 2-2 heading into the 88th minute before Chiesa scored, cueing wild celebrations at Anfield.

The strike was also Chiesa's first goal in the Premier League since his £10m move from Juventus 12 months ago.

Despite only making seven appearances in that time, the 27 year-old has become something of a cult hero among Liverpool fans and is the subject of one of the most popular songs on The Kop at the moment.

Away from the pitch, he is married to Lucia Bramani.

She shared a picture from Liverpool’s Instagram page which showed Chiesa celebrating the winner and said: “You deserve everything.” She also added a red love heart emoji.

After the players lifted the Premier League trophy in front of a full Anfield at the end of last season, Lucia also took to Instagram to mark the special moment.

She wrote: "I’m so proud of you, always and forever." Lucia arrived at Anfield wearing the away shirt from the 95/96 season.

Chiesa also uploaded a post to the social media platform, writing "Anfield Road" alongside a picture holding the trophy in front of the onlooking Kop.

The couple appear to have settled in well to life in Merseyside.

In an Instagram post back in February, Lucia posted a series of pictures including one of her at the Albert Dock in Liverpool city centre.

Throughout the summer, speculation has been rife that Chiesa would leave Liverpool and return to his homeland as he eyes a place back in the Italian senior squad.
