Portuguese Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo was the victim of a burglary at his home on Thursday.
Hit in the face, the right side revealed the information through a message posted on Instagram. “Unfortunately, today I was assaulted by four cowards who hurt me and tried to hurt my family. When you show resistance, that’s what happens. They managed to take all the jewelry and leave my face like this. I don’t know how there are people with such meanness. The most important thing for me is my family and luckily they are all doing well. And I, after so many obstacles in my life, it’s just one more that I’m going to overcome. Firm and strong, as always. “
On his account Twitter, Manchester City have lent their support to the 27-year-old footballer. “We are shocked that Joao Cancelo and his family were the victims of a burglary at their home last night, in which Joao was also assaulted. Joao and his family are supported by the club, which will help the police in their investigation into this very serious matter. “
