Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba has revealed his World Cup winner’s medal was among the things stolen during a recent burglary at his house.
Last week, Pogba spoke about his family’s “worst nightmare”, after his home was broken into while his kids were asleep in their bedroom.
The incident happened last Tuesday, while Pogba was playing in the Red Devils’ Champions League last-16 tie against Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford.
Pogba claimed his family had been stripped of their “sense of safety and security”.

The 29-year-old has now disclosed that the medal he received after France won the World Cup in 2018 was also stolen.
Pogba said in remarks reported by L’Equipe: “There were jewels from my mother, my world champion medal.
“What scared me the most was that my two children were at home with the nanny during this incident.
“She overheard everything, called my wife and security, then locked herself with the boys in a room. For several days, she was shocked. The main thing is that my children are well.”
