Thieves break into Portugal coach’s home and steal valuables worth a large sum

The home of Portugal national team coach Roberto Martinez has been broken into.

The incident took place at the Spaniard’s home in Portugal, where thieves stole several watches and pieces of jewellery worth 800,000 euros.

The number of stolen items has not been disclosed.

Forensic experts have already searched the house in central Cascais for clues.

Portugal’s PSP police force, which is leading the investigation into the theft, is reportedly focusing on the theory that it was carried out by a foreign gang specialising in high-end property burglaries.
