The attack on Robin Olsen’s home was carried out according to British pressure by masked men, armed with machete-like knives. The 31-year-old Swedish national team star, who is currently the second goalkeeper in the Premier League team Everton, is said to have been in his home in Hale Barns, near Manchester, together with his wife and children when the robbers stormed in.
Under threat of a knife, Olsen is said to have been forced to hand over valuable jewelery, a watch and other valuables, while robbers kept his wife and children under control.
– This is not a common burglary, it is the worst form. A gang, armed with a machete, threatens your wife and children, says another source the Sun.
– Robin was terrified. He does not care about the material things that were stolen, it is about how it affects his family. They are deeply traumatized. It’s every parent’s worst nightmare. The family has moved and the club has given all players their own bodyguard.
Robin Olsen’s manager also exposed to burglary
Robin Olsen was not in the squad that lost 0-2 against Chelsea on Monday night. However, his absence is said to have been due to an injury.
Hale Barns and nearby Altrincham are popular with players in the clubs from Manchester and Liverpool. Last month, Olsen’s coach Carlo Ancelotti also broke in and got rid of a safe. Ancelotti’s daughter must have been home at the time.
