Former Southampton midfielder Mario Lemina's girlfriend Fanny Neguesha reveals their home was burgled in Nice with armed thugs 'tying her and her friends up while they stole £250,000 worth of jewellery and clothing'

Former Juventus, Southampton and Fulham midfielder Mario Lemina and his model partner Fanny Neguesha have had their home burgled in the south of France, losing more than £250,000 worth of items.

Neguesha, the ex-fiancé of Mario Balotelli, was reportedly tied up by three thugs while the burglary took place around 9:30pm on Sunday with Lemina away on international duty with Gabon.

Lemina left Southampton permanently for Ligue 1 side Nice this summer, after spending the past two seasons on loan at Galatasaray and Fulham respectively.
