Barcelona star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was attacked and robbed at his home by four people wearing masks, club officials have confirmed. The Spanish giants have said that he and his wife had been threatened with guns and iron bars but, despite the robbery, they are both doing well.
According to Spanish outlet El Pais, as quoted by Sky Sports, the 33-year-old striker was hit and forced to open a safe where the couple stored jewellery. The report says that the couple were tie up and handcuffed during the incident which took place on Monday.
Authorities have reportedly said at least four masked robbers entered Aubameyang's house, where he lives with his wife and two children just outside of Barcelona in Castelldefels. ESPN say that the Gabon international's home is just 200 metres from houses owned by Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.
