Emerson Palmieri’s teammates, including his compatriot Angel Ogbonna, reacted to the Italy international’s scorcher from distance in a 4-2 win over Brentford on Monday.
Emerson, a former Roma and Chelsea defender and a Euro 2020 winner with Italy, scored his first goal of the season on Monday in the Hammers’ 4-2 victory over Brentford.
Many of his teammates reacted on Instagram after the game, including his compatriot Angelo Ogbonna, who wrote in Italian: ‘Giocatore!’ which means ‘What a player!’
Ex-Milan star Lucas Paqueta commented with a message written in Brazilian.
Emerson’s West Ham contract expires in 2026, but the Hammers have an option to extend for a further campaign.
