Barcelona forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was robbed and beaten by several armed men who broke into the Gabonese star’s home.
Four intruders broke into Aubameyang’s Castelldefels home’s back garden.
According to police sources cited by El Pais, Aubameyang, 33, was threatened with firearms and iron bars, and was even beaten.
The robbers also threatened Aubameyang’s wife, Alysha Behague, with weapons until they were able to open the safe.
According to witnesses, the four men stole several jewels from the house and fled in a white Audi A3.
Catalonia police are now looking into who may have been involved.
Robberies have targeted a number of high-profile football players in Spain.
However, most break-ins occur while the footballers are on the field, making Aubameyang’s incident unusual.
The terrifying attack on his home may prompt Aubameyang to leave Barcelona sooner.
After falling out of favor under Xavi, Aubameyang has been linked with a return to England to play for Chelsea.
