Gary Neville makes Raheem Sterling 'sympathy' claim amid armed robbery at Chelsea star's home

Chelsea star Raheem Sterling has left England's World Cup camp after his home was the subject of an armed robbery. The 27-year-old had featured in Gareth Southgate's team for the first two fixtures of the tournament.

Sterling's home was broken into on Saturday evening ahead of the Three Lions' win over Senegal on Sunday night. It has been reported that jewellery worth around £300,000 was stolen from his house whilst he was away in Qatar.

It's unclear whether the Chelsea star will return to the England squad for their quarter-final clash against France on Saturday after Southgate confirmed Sterling had flew home. Surrey Police have released a statement regarding the incident as they continue their investigation, whilst Jordan Henderson and Kalidou Koulibaly have both sent messages of support to the England international.
