Pogba confirmed the news on social media

Paul Pogba has revealed that his house was burgled whilst he was playing for Manchester United against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night.

The midfielder confirmed in a post on Twitter on Wednesday that his house had been burgled whilst his children were asleep during the final minutes of United’s defeat to Atletico.

He said: “Last night our worst nightmares were realised when our home was broken into and burglarised 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 something more valuable than anything than 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 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 I would like to offer a reward for anyone who has a clue to help us. Please send any info to rewardpogba@gmail.com.”
