Bruno Fernandes' Cheshire home burgled while he played in Italy

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 23 Oct, 13:29 · Archive

Three masked thieves burgled Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes' £4m Cheshire home while he played in a Champions League match.

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes' £4 million house in Nether Alderley, Cheshire, was raided by three masked burglars at around 8.30pm on Wednesday 21 October whilst he played football in Italy. Fernandes was competing in a Champions League match with the United squad against Como. His wife Ana Pinho and their two children were not at the luxury six-bedroom property when the break-in happened.

A neighbour spotted three people acting suspiciously in the back garden and alerted the police. Officers attended the scene and arrived within ten minutes of the call, but the suspects had already fled. Despite the house being protected with high-tech security, it is understood that intruders may have jumped over a fence at the back of the property to gain entry.

Cheshire Police confirmed that officers discovered a burglary had taken place and that a number of items had been stolen. Detective Inspector David Jarvis of Macclesfield Proactive CID said the investigation was 'in its early stages at this time' and that police were 'committed to doing all we can to trace the people responsible'.
