Napoli star Alisson Santos, who’s already sidelined with a hamstring injury, was reportedly woken up by burglars inside his home in the middle of the night after his team’s wild 3-3 draw against Roma on Saturday.
A Terrifying Wake-Up Call in Giugliano
The 24-year-old was apparently home with his wife in Giugliano in Campania when the terrifying incident occurred. Reports from Italy indicate he woke up to find intruders already in his house. This isn’t just some petty theft, either. The scumbags made off with some serious stuff, including jewellery, a valuable watch, and even Santos’s own car.
Sidelined and Now Shaken
Thankfully, police later found his car in Villaricca, which is a small victory. Now, investigators are deep into reviewing CCTV footage, trying to piece together who pulled this off and bring them to justice. Santos, who was watching his teammates battle it out from the stands at Stadio Maradona because of that hamstring injury, is expected to be out for another few weeks.
This whole nightmare just compounds what’s already a tough period for him. You have to wonder how something like this impacts a player’s focus and recovery. Hopefully, the police catch these guys fast, and Santos can focus on getting back on the pitch, safe and sound.
