Argentina World Cup winner Emiliano Martinez has shown off his £20,000 guard dog - a similar breed to those used by the SAS and US Navy Seals.
The Aston Villa goalkeeper posted an Instagram video of the protection dog in action with an 'intruder' feeling the full force of its sharp teeth as they tried to 'attack' his wife Mandinha outside their home.
It was reported last week that Martinez, who won the Golden Glove award for best goalkeeper as Argentina won the World Cup in Qatar, had bought the dog to protect his home, family and medals.
