Police investigating a break-in at the home of England star Raheem Sterling have confirmed jewellery and watches were reported stolen.
The player left the England World Cup squad in Qatar after intruders broke into his home in Oxshott, Surrey, on Saturday.
Surrey Police said no-one was at home at the time and no threats of violence were involved.
A spokesperson for Sterling said he was "shaken" by the news.
They added that "as soon as he was alerted he wanted to get home, concerned for the well-being of his children".

There seems to be a discrepancy in accounts, early reports saying the family were at home at the time, police saying they weren't at home. According to BBC TV news the family home is on a private residential estate with access gates and security patrols (and, presumably, security cameras)... Sterling probably thought the home was safe.

It's been going on for years. They should have security for every match / training event / publicised absence to maintain their insurance.
