England stars have gone the extra mile to protect their homes from burglary gangs while they are away at the Euros.
Members of Gareth Southgate’s squad have upgraded their home security to avoid a repeat of the raid on Raheem Sterling’s house during the World Cup.
Sterling had to rush home from the tournament in Qatar in December, 2022, when thieves stole £300,000 worth of designer watches from his house.
Other high-profile players like Jack Grealish and Alexander Isak have also fallen victim to burglaries while away from home.
Now that the Three Lions have arrived in Germany for the Euros, they have taken every precaution to secure their luxury mansions during the tournament.
A source said: “Players don’t want any worry or distractions whilst away. They’ve seen what’s happened previously and want to make sure their focus is on the tournament, at any cost.”
Security firms have installed top-of-the-line equipment including night vision cameras and ex-Army personnel with guard dogs will patrol the grounds.
The players have also hired private bodyguards amid fears of terror attacks during the tournament.
Security experts have praised the players for prioritizing their home security while away for the Euros.
The squad is now at their base in Germany, preparing for their tournament opener against Serbia on Sunday after a disappointing defeat to Iceland last week.
