Nkunku, Kvaratskhelia, Ronaldo or Batistuta: the iconic celebrations of footballers

Obafemi Martins’ impossible somersaults (which regularly angered the then Inter coach, Hector Cuper), Mario Balotelli’s inflated muscles at the 2012 European Championship (as well as the famous «Why Always Me?» from the Manchester City period) , Alessandro Del Piero’s sticky tongue: there are celebrations that have entered the collective football imagination, becoming a sort of trademark of the players who put them into action. In recent times, that of Christopher Nkunku – who Chelsea has just signed from Leipzig for the next six seasons – arouses curiosity when he always inflates a balloon: «It’s for my son. He likes them and so when I score I dedicate the goal to him like this ». Diego Nkunku was born in 2000.
