Manchester United youngstar Tahith Chong was robed at “knifepoint” after a masked gang broke into his home in January. According to Dailymail.
Soccercruz learnt that the player has been on loan at Championship side Birmingham City this season.
He was at his home as at the time of the incidence, two and a half months into his recovery from injury that sidelined him for long.
According to The Sun, ‘three balaclava-clad men broke in at 3am while Chong was asleep’ and ‘held blades to his throat’ as they ordered him to give them items including watches and jewellery.’
Soccercruz also learnt that the robbers ‘mocked him over his poor security’ and left the Dutch winger ‘extremely shaken’.
Authorities have also informed Chong that his social media is been monitored by the gangs looking for indicators of wealth.
The incident, which on Sunday 16 January, is the fifth reported burglary of a home owned by a Manchester United or City player since Christmas.
