Shkodran Mustafi's home was burgled to the tune of €1million while he was upstairs, according to reports.
Former Arsenal star Mustafi's luxury villa in the Spanish town of Betera, near Valencia, was targeted in the early hours of Monday morning.
As reported by Spanish newspaper Levante, the criminals entered his property via a golf course next door, taking cash, jewellery and clothes before making off with the loot.
While many such burglaries of footballers happen while the stars are playing matches or at training, this crime is unusual in that Mustafi, now at Levante, was said to be on the top floor of his villa while the goods were taken.
