Most of England’s national team players are reportedly considering beefing up security at their UK homes after armed burglars broke into Raheem Sterling’s mansion while his family was inside it.
The Chelsea winger rushed back to his Surrey home from Qatar to reunite with his family after the shocking ordeal, with manager Gareth Southgate unsure whether he will return or not for Saturday’s quarter-finals.

England captain Harry Kane sent his best regards to his colleague, stating that his and the team’s thoughts are with Sterling and his family. “It is a private matter with him, but it’s never easy to see one or your teammates and friends have to deal with something like that,” the captain stated.
Following the burglary, a significant amount of Sterling’s teammates are exploring increased security options, with the raid of the player’s home being only the latest in a string of home thefts.
England are set to face France on Saturday 10th December at 7pm after securing a convincing win against Senegal on Sunday.
