Italy Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma targeted in Paris apartment robbery

Gianluigi Donnarumma, the Italian football star, and his partner terrified as burglars targeted their apartment in Paris.

Italian football star Gianluigi Donnarumma and his partner experienced a terrifying ordeal when their Paris apartment was targeted by burglars. The incident occurred in the eighth district of the capital city, where multiple individuals attacked the couple and subsequently tied them up. The robbery took place just days before the goalkeeper was scheduled to leave for pre-season friendlies.

While Donnarumma and his partner were left physically unharmed, the thieves managed to make off with valuable items, including jewelry, watches, and luxury goods worth an estimated 500,000 euros (approximately $550,000). The couple raised the alarm at a nearby hotel following the incident.

Sadly, this is not the first instance of PSG players being targeted in such crimes. Other players, including Presnel Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Angel Di Maria, Dani Alves, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Sergio Rico, and Mauro Icardi, have also been victims of robberies in recent years.

However, authorities have been proactive in investigating these incidents. In January and February of this year, four men received prison sentences in connection to burglaries at the homes of Marquinhos and Di Maria in 2021.

Despite this distressing event, PSG remains confident in the justice system's ability to swiftly identify and apprehend the culprits responsible for the robbery of Gianluigi Donnarumma.
