Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes (32) is facing his worst crisis both on and off the pitch. Following a recent heavy defeat and controversy over friction with the manager, his home worth approximately 7 billion won was also burglarized.

The UK's "The Sun" reported on the 23rd (Korean time), "While Bruno was away in Italy for a UEFA Champions League (UCL) away match, a trio of masked robbers broke into his residence."

Located in the affluent area of 'Golden Triangle' in Cheshire, England, the home is valued at 4 million pounds (approximately 7 billion won). According to the outlet, The Thieves bypassed advanced security systems, including alarms and CCTV, by entering through a backyard connected to a forest, and fled after stealing high-value items such as luxury jewelry.

Police, who received a report from a neighbor, arrived at the scene within 10 minutes, but the suspects had already vanished. Fortunately, Bruno's wife and two children were not home, so no injuries occurred. It was also confirmed that two Bentley vehicles parked outside the house, with a combined value of approximately 700 million won, were unharmed.

The local police are analyzing surrounding CCTV footage while tracking the suspects. Local media estimated that the crime was committed by a 'professional burglary gang' that targets players' away match schedules.

Bruno has suffered a significant psychological blow. Manchester United suffered a 1-4 defeat in their UCL away match against Como 1907 on the 22nd, falling into a slump of seven consecutive matches without a win in official competitions. After the match, Bruno publicly criticized Manager Michael Carrick's tactics, stating, "We must press high up the pitch, even if it means taking risks." In response, Carrick countered by saying, "No matter what system we use, we cannot win if players do not run forward and backward," pointing out the players' lack of work rate, which exposed cracks within the team.

Bruno, who has recorded 4 goals and 1 assist in 11 official matches this season, is going through a nightmare-like period as poor team results are compounded by the burglary incident.

Manchester United, which is wavering both internally and externally, will play against Bournemouth at home in Old Trafford on the 25th for Matchday 8 of the English Premier League (EPL).
