Alexander Isak was targeted by a gang of burglars who carried out a string of high-value break-ins, Newcastle Crown Court has heard.
The Swedish international's Northumberland home was broken into last April, with police confirming at the time that a vehicle was stolen from the property before being found abandoned in nearby Dissington.
Isak is believed to be the third victim of the gang, who had already stolen jewellery and clothes worth more than £1milliion from a local businessman, jurors were told.
The court heard three members of the same family, living in Italy, admit to conspiracy to commit burglary.
