England players will spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on 'military grade' security measures to protect their homes during the Euros after a spate of break-ins on Premier League stars.
They are set to spend around £250,000 on infra-red and night-vision cameras plus around-the-clock security for the duration of the tournament in Germany.
Ex-special forces personnel are also being employed to guard their homes during the competition which takes place from June 14 to July 14.
England players based in Manchester have already discussed the plans at a recent family get-together.
Some players have already installed panic rooms in their luxury homes in an attempt to keep loved ones safe in response to the trend of targeting footballers.
