Back in February 2019, it was Dani Alves’ house, also in Neuilly, which was broken into. But the series of thefts, to the detriment of the PSG players, began in November 2018 with the first burglary at Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting’s home. Reports claim that the burglars stole dozens of luxury handbags, a dozen Rolex and Hublot watches as well as numerous jewels valued at nearly £550k on that particular occasion. Thiago Silva and Unai Emery also had their houses broken into during their spells with PSG.
