He genuinely was one of greatest strikers Chelsea Football Club ever brought to the club. He definitely will be missed. Forever a Blue. May he Rest In Heaven. Thank you for being part of my childhood and winning trophies with Chelsea in the Ken Bates Era. 🙏🏿🕊
i was crying that night when he proudly raised the Champions to the sky, i'm crying today for his passing. He will be forever my captain, our captain, in Juventus history. Rest in peace Gianluca.
I will always remember that the reason why i started supporting Chelsea is because of Vialli, Zola, Wise, Poyet etc. Vialli was one of the players who set the standards for Chelsea. A great guy, humble, dedicated. Forever in our hearts. Rest easy legend. 💙🕊
You need to give a mention to Ruud Gullit too. He attracted all these wonderful players to kick start the Chelsea revolution put in motion by Glen Hoddle. I started going in the 75-76 season when I was 11 and the team that made you start supporting Chelsea was the first Chelsea team I can say really made me dream of what could be. Still in shock, first Butch and now Gianluca. Two Chelsea legends that should still be with us. RIP Gianluca
Liverpool fan here to pay respects. Wonderful footballer, genuine man and a real loss for football, and in general too. Vivid memories in my childhood of loving my club but secretly always smiling when watching him play. What a character and what a miss he will be. ❤️
I remember when Chelsea was in the European competition we were playing in the snow. it was live on Channel 5 in the UK. Vialli was throwing snowballs at the players . for me he was a true gentleman always smiling and the damn good forward. A true blue part of the foundations of where the club is today love to friends families and colleagues he'll be sorely missed
Bless him, my favourite striker. I was a regular at the Bridge when he played. Also bumped into him on a few occasions, I have his shirt, and it's signed. God rest his soul. ABSOLUTE LEGEND.
He came to Chelsea as a legend, he left as an even greater one. And he now leaves us all too soon as an all-time legend of the game. Rest well, Gianluca.
Juventus fan here. What a player Vialli was, he could score in all manners a striker should - left foot, right foot, headers, first-time shots, shots after dribbles in close ranks, long range blasts, volleys, everything. He was very talented but also very mobile, his constant running could wear out a full defence. Always liked his celebrations, he exploded with joy when it actually made sense, otherwise he was just happy to have done his job. Nothing like the shows players put up today. He was sure of himself but not arrogant, actually he often came out as - if not humble - capable of listening. He was quite combative but also clean and loved fair play and especially playing for the team. And he was a clever nice bloke off the pitch too, never heard him say anything stupid. A great guy, a true image of the football that was, the romanticized but also truly more romantic game of the 1980s and 1990s, both for us Italians and I guess for you guys in England. So sorry he has left us
Arsenal supporter here, Gianluca Vialli was a wonderful footballer, a true gentleman and genuinely one of the nicest guys in the sport. He was also a highly intelligent man and very well spoken, especially considering English was not his mother tongue. Gone way too soon. RIP Gianluca.
Always have LOVED this man. I cried when I heard the news, and I wasn't even a Chelsea fan. But the beautiful soul made me watch Chelsea as much as I could. The fans that saw him play live every week I am jealous. Rest well Gianluca, and love to you, your family and friends X
One of the nicedst, funniest, caring men i've ever met, always had a smile on his face and was always signing things and talking to fans, an absolute gem of a player and an equally amazing human being, he will be sorely missed but never forgotten, flying the blue flag in the sky now, RIP big man many many condolences to his family and close circle 💙
A great player will be sadly missed, some forget we had some terrific players at Chelsea before Abramovich came along. Vialli, Zola, Di Matteo, Leboeuf, Gullit, Petrescu etc. Great times
CFC fans to sing Vialli's name with a minutes applause. He will hear us in heaven. Thank you Vialli for your love care and joy for football and for Chelsea FC. Chelsea FC player and manager that was part of the foundations of successful and consistent winning mentality that has made CFC the club successful over many years. Thank you Gianluca for everything. Now play with Pele in heaven and RIP.
Gianluca Vialli, un Gentleman, un campione ovunque. Cremonese, Sampdoria, Juventus, Chelsea, Italia 🇮🇹 Inghilterra 🏴 sempre nei nostri cuori ❤️❤️ Rip 🙏
Without the likes of Luca, I never would’ve become such a massive fan of the club. So many childhood memories from him that left a lasting impression, the second goal against Tromso was typical of him, just pure class.
I am a Juventus fan, but the greatness of this man goes above the shirts he dressed up during his career. A great man loved by all the football fans, no matter which team they support. Grazie Luca.
Hi everybody, I'm really amazed that so many people outside Italy loved Gianluca. Thanks for sharing your feelings. I'm a Juventus fan and I think Gianluca was determinant in a part of Juventus history. I loved the player but most of all I loved the man, as it has already been said by many of you.
As a Liverpool fan, I loved watching Vialli and Mancini play for Sampdoria on Football Italia on CH4. They, along with Guiseppe Signori, and Zola at Parma, were a revelation, and showed British fans what was possible on a football pitch. Vialli was brilliant at Chelsea, both as player and manager. But forget about Vialli the footballer, I just want to remember him for the lovely man he was, a man with a beaming smile, a fabulous sense of humour, a man who radiated happiness and love wherever he went. It hurts to know that he's left us, and at such a young age. Only a week after Pele passed, I hope the pair of them are having a majestic kick about upstairs.
Vialli in the iconic Autoglass Chelsea shirt. I'm a Juventus fan and when I was 7 years old he was the reason I felt in love for the beautiful game, and to see him lift the Champions league trophy in Rome was incredible, probably one of the sweetest memories from my childhood. You'll be greatly missed.
Brilliant player absolute legend, Vialli and Zola as the men together were defenders worst nightmare, humble man truly class act, forever blue RIP hero and legend
Quality striker and person as well, as a Manchester United fan, I would have loved to have seen him in a red shirt. The Vialli and Ravanelli partnership at Juve was epic!
Great player, true Chelsea legend, & beautiful human being. Love & condolences to his family & friends. As they say "To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die " 😔❤⚽️xxx
Can't believe he has left us so young, my sympathy goes out to his family and trust me when I say this great great man will never be forgotten by us blues
My absolute hero growing up, devastated about the news. What a player. What a manager. What a person. Thank you for all you done for Chelsea Mr Vialli. Had a tear in my eye all day 💔 . God rest your soul and RIP. Forever in any Chelsea fan and any football fans hearts.
…quando vedo Vialli, così immenso sul campo da gioco e così unico e speciale come uomo, sono fiera di essere italiana ❤ grazie per il tuo eterno sorriso
Ciao Gianluca grazie per tutto quello che ci hai fatto vedere in campo e fuori dal campo .grandissimo calciatore e soprattutto grandissima persona. eri amato da tutti (anche dagli avversari).R.I.P. CAMPIONE .condoglianze alla famiglia.per sempre uno dei noi ciao Gianluca.......avresti meritato il pallone d'oro.
I remember him tearing the Barnsley defence apart at Oakwell in 1997, the volley he scored when the ball was behind him will forever be etched in my memory. RIP Gianluca 🙏
So many great memories, Liverpool in the F.A. Cup, Arsenal in the League Cup & many more. A humble, generous human being, he'll be sadly missed. R.I.P. Legend Luca. Condolonsces to his family. 😔
A legend in the truest sense of the word. A fantastic and iconic footballer, a character on and off the pitch and, above all, a wonderful and thoroughly decent bloke. Whenever I played, I tried to be like Gianluca. RIP 😔
Wonderfull player , Gianluca vialli , in all team's what vialli play , him make remarkable moments , sampdoria , Juventus, nacional team Italia and Chelsea . Vialli stay in we Hearts forever and now play in the inmortal pantheon with BEST player of all the time.
Just look at how Vialli scored his goals and the way the ball is played to him in the channels. It's a strikers dream when you receive such Balls behind the defensive line. Our current crop of midfielders always plays the ball sideways and backwards. When players constantly make runs and do not receive a pass, they won't continue 😒 RIP boss 🙏 😢 💔 😪
Diro quello che tanti hanno gia detto, Gianluca vialli oltre a esserre un grande fuoriclasse era un grande uomo con dei valori che molti non hanno piu oggi a dato l'esempio andado in Premier che non era quella di oggi e stato vincente da subito e si e fatto amare da tutti, vorrei finire dicendo che se non avessi avuto sacchi come ct poteva avere una carriera piu lunga in nazionale e magari vincere un trofeo
A chelsea legend both as a player and a manger,him and Zola were defenders worst nightmare,Rip legend💙🕊
the man who left a huge mark on the history of Sampdoria Juventus and Chelsea you will always remain in our hearts a legend!!! 😢
Grazie capitano
Capitano ❤️
Gigante
Grazie mille per tutto quello che ai fatto nella vita 💓💓🇮🇹
Vialli era una gran persona prima di essere un campione. L'ho sempre adorato e seguito la sua carriera pur tifando Atalanta.
From a Man Utd fan. RIP Gianluca. World class footballer and a world class man.
Arsenal fan here. This man just oozed class. The game is better off for having him. Grazie Luca.
He genuinely was one of greatest strikers Chelsea Football Club ever brought to the club. He definitely will be missed. Forever a Blue. May he Rest In Heaven. Thank you for being part of my childhood and winning trophies with Chelsea in the Ken Bates Era. 🙏🏿🕊
Arsenal fan here. RIP Luca, forever a Chelsea legend
i was crying that night when he proudly raised the Champions to the sky, i'm crying today for his passing.
He will be forever my captain, our captain, in Juventus history.
Rest in peace Gianluca.
Gullit-Zola-Vialli, you can say that again! Absolute legends we had back then, RIP 🙏 to another legend of the game.
Sending 💙 from Glasgow. Rest in peace Gianluca Vialli. Gone but never forgotten. 🇮🇹🇬🇧
With love Luca, a Tottenham fan but an admirer of your skill and personality. RIP
I will always remember that the reason why i started supporting Chelsea is because of Vialli, Zola, Wise, Poyet etc. Vialli was one of the players who set the standards for Chelsea. A great guy, humble, dedicated. Forever in our hearts. Rest easy legend. 💙🕊
Same here! 🍻⚽️RIP
same for me
You need to give a mention to Ruud Gullit too. He attracted all these wonderful players to kick start the Chelsea revolution put in motion by Glen Hoddle.

RIP Gianluca
I fell out of love with football and almost Chelsea for a few years until Vialli, Zola, Poyet, Gullit, and others joined. How brilliant Vialli was
Dormi sereno, grande campione. Sarai per sempre indimenticato. Buon viaggio LUCA!!!!!

True Legend. Great days . Thank you Vialli 💙💔💙
Rip gianluca legend vialli
Always remember that game against tromso in the snow
The Chelsea team that Vialli played and later managed was definitely one of the best.
it would be awesome if Juve, Chelsea, Samp and Cremonese will arrange a summer tournament in memory of Gianluca Vialli. From a Juventus fan
love the era when zola, di matteo and vialli were playing for chelsea. Vialli was certainly Peter Schmeichel's nemesis!
R.I.P to this great Chelsea legend.
We need players like him at this time
Man Utd fan here paying my respects to a world class player and manager. RIP Vialli
Tutto il mondo ti rende omaggio grande campione. Grazie di tutto 💙🤍❤🖤🤍💙
