PSG coach Emery's house is robbed on match night

Signed Neymar shirts, a Rolex watch, transfer plans and salary documents were among the items stolen with the family telling the police goods worth around 20,000 euros in total were taken.

Unai Emery

Paris, December 15: Paris Saint-Germain coach Unai Emery's Paris apartment was burgled on Wednesday (December 13) evening as his side won 4-2 at Strasbourg which earned them a place in the quarterfinals of the French League Cup and also claimed revenge for a defeat at the same ground earlier this month.

The robbery at the top floor flat of a chic Parisian street in the 16th arrondissement was discovered around 11pm by Emery's wife Louisa Fernandez.

Emery himself got back from Strasbourg in the early hours of Thursday.

Signed Neymar shirts, a Rolex watch, transfer plans and salary documents were among the items stolen with the family telling the police goods worth around 20,000 euros in total were taken.

The world will stop and watch PSG v Madrid - Emery

Over the past year, Emery has been able to spend bigger than almost any manager in history, notably his £198million summer swoop for Barcelona superstar Neymar.

Many people might be amazed to hear burglars were able to get inside Emery's home.

The top-floor apartment in an upmarket Paris street has video cameras and two digicodes.

And police have been studying video images of the scene during the possible hours the raid took place.

"The door was closed but not locked," the police said.

"The door was lifted off its hinges and the thieves took luxury handbags, jewellery, football shirts and designer clothes," the police confirmed.
