Robin Olsen's MACHETE HORROR: Everton goalkeeper and his family subjected to terrifying robbery at home by knife-wielding thugs... leaving panicked Premier League stars in the North West beefing up security

Everton goalkeeper Robin Olsen and his family have been subjected to a 'horrific' attack by machete-wielding raiders.

Panicked top-flight stars are now beefing up home security after masked thugs crashed in and confronted the on-loan Sweden international on Saturday night. He was with his wife and two small children at the time.

Amid terrifying scenes, the robbers marched Olsen around the home, threatened him with a knife and escaped with valuable jewellery and a luxury watch. Police are investigating, and Everton are offering support to their player and his family following what insiders have described as a 'deeply traumatising' episode.
