Andrea Ranocchia was in an emotional mood on Tuesday as he thanked his family for their support throughout this season.

Inter secured their first Serie A title on Sunday since 2010, after the Nerazzurri beat Crotone and Atalanta were held to a draw at Sassuolo.

Ranocchia is the last surviving member of the squad which won the club’s last trophy, the Coppa Italia in 2011, but at last he has another title to celebrate.

The defender tweeted a picture of his family dressed in Inter shirts and said: “My strength, my love, my life.

“Thank you.”
