Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba said his house was burglarized while he played in the Champions League game against Atletico Madrid.
Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba on Wednesday revealed that his 'worst fears were realised' after his home was burgled during his team's Champions League exit at the hands of Atletico Madrid.
Pogba got married to Bolivian model María Zulay Salaues in 2019 and both share two kids together. Pogba and Zulay became parents with the birth of their first son, Labile Shakur, on January 3rd, 2019. They welcomed their second son into the world in 2020.
In a post on Twitter, the French midfielder said his "babies were sleeping in their bedroom" when the burglary took place on Tuesday. Pogba came off the bench as Manchester United crashed out of the Champions League after a 1-0 defeat against Atletico Madrid. The incident took place during the game and Pogba, along with his wife Zulay, then rushed home.

Pogba wrote on social media: "Last night our family's worst nightmare was realized when our home was broken into and burglarized while our babies were sleeping in their bedroom. The burglars were in our home for less than five minutes, but in that time they took from us something more valuable than anything we had in our home... our sense of safety and security.
"This occurred during the final minutes of last night's match when they knew that we would not be home. My wife and I rushed home not knowing if our children were safe and unharmed. As a father, there is no feeling worse in this world than not being there to protect your children and I sincerely hope that no one ever has to feel what I felt last night. It is for this reason that I would like to offer a reward for anyone who has a clue to help us. Please send any info to rewardpogba@gmail.com."
He said the burglary happened during the final minutes of United's 1-0 loss to Atletico, which eliminated the English team. Pogba, who has issued a reward for information, said he was informed of the break-in after the game.
