According to media reports, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (33) was the victim of a robbery. The FC Barcelona player and his family were threatened by thieves with guns and iron bars at their home in Castelldefels near Barcelona last night, according to “El Mundo”.
The perpetrators are said to have forced the footballer and his wife Alysha (36) to open a safe. They were then able to steal jewels and, according to witnesses, fled in a white Audi A3. Aubameyang is said to have suffered a blow to the chin and his wife to the head in the attack. According to “El País”, the hooded thieves were at least four men who climbed into the garden and then gained access to the soccer professional’s house.
In the recent past, football stars in Spain have repeatedly been the victims of burglaries or robberies. In most cases, however, the footballers were not present. At the beginning of the year, thieves gained access to the villa of Real Madrid’s Karim Benzema (34) while he was on the pitch.
