'He made Serie A special' - James Richardson pays tribute to Gianluca Vialli

Journalist and former Football Italia host James Richardson joined Sky Sports News to pay tribute to Gianluca Vialli.

Vialli, the former Italy and Chelsea striker, has died aged 58 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

Vialli was first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2017 and then for a second time in 2021, shortly after Italy's Euro 2020 triumph.

He left his role with Italy in December, citing his need to undergo treatment for the disease.
