Burglars targeted Jack Grealish's home while the Manchester City winger was playing for his side in their 3-1 away win against Everton in Merseyside.
Reports of burglary at the footballer's home in Cheshire at around 21:50 GMT were made to police officers on Wednesday, December 27, 2023.
According to The Sun newspaper, several valuables including; jewelry and watches worth about £1 million were carted away.
A search has been carried out to get the suspects, with police dogs and a helicopter being involved in the search process.
However, officers did not find any suspects, with a spokesperson for Cheshire Police expressing: “No arrests have been made at this time and enquiries are ongoing.”
Manchester City picked up a comeback win over Everton, courtesy of goals from Phil Foden, Julian Alvarez, and Bernardo Silva, rubbishing the goal scored by Jack Harrison in the 29th minute.
The Cityzens sit 4th on the Premier League table, with 37 points from 18 league matches, with most of the remaining teams in the league having played 19 games thus far.
Pep Guardiola's side have been tipped as favorites to win the league crown, and if they win their one game outstanding, they will go 2 points behind Liverpool, largely depending on the results of the Reds in their upcoming games.
Meanwhile, there are reports that Jack Grealish's family were terrified by the incident as the footballer's home was looted.
It was said that about 10 relatives were cheering on Grealish in his televised match at Everton when they heard noises upstairs and dogs barking uncontrollably.
Grealish's loved ones who were in the apartment include fiancée Sasha Attwood, his parents, grandmother, two sisters, and brother.
Subsequently, they ran for protection at the unfamiliar mansion that Jack Grealish moved into recently before Christmas.
The homes of footballers have been targeted highly in recent years, with burglars ultimately carting away valuable items.
A source also indicated that due to how massive the footballer's apartment is, “it is understandable why no one heard anything at first”.
The source also added: “It was also the first time the family had visited so they were unfamiliar with the property.”
