Manchester City's Joao Cancelo has revealed how a robbery over Christmas has terrorised his family.
Four burglars attacked the 27-year-old over the festive period while his wife and young daughter were in the house.
Cancelo still has facial injuries from the ordeal and opened up on the mental trauma his loved ones have since suffered. The 'cowards' made off with jewellery.
'That's life. It happens. It was horrific. It terrorised my family,' Cancelo said. 'They didn't deserve to go through that.'
Cancelo played for City during their Premier League victory at Arsenal just two days later and has now signed a new contract at the Etihad Stadium.
