Premier League players in the North West have been warned they are at a ‘heightened risk’ of being targeted following the terrifying armed robbery endured by Everton goalkeeper Robin Olsen.
On Wednesday, Sportsmail revealed that the 31-year-old and his young family had been confronted by machete-wielding raiders who smashed into their home near Altrincham on Saturday night.
The Sweden international is said to have broken down when he relived the attack to his team-mates, and his club are known to have offered security guards to their stunned players in the aftermath of the traumatic episode.
