Jack Grealish (28) lived a dream year in 2023 until he suffered a house robbery on the 27th, a scare from which he and his family are still recovering. Taking advantage of the fact that the player was in the city of Liverpool playing Everton’s match against Manchester City, the assailants broke into his house, with his entire family inside. They took the loot worth around 1 million euros.
Grealish describes the experience as traumatic
The English footballer assures in the statement that “he has no words to explain what he feels, because he is completely destroyed.” It was a traumatic experience for him and his family, although despite the bad things he was thankful that no one was physically hurt.
Despite experiencing the best moment of his career in 2023, he has nothing to celebrate, because sometimes football takes a backseat.
The complete message
My family is very important to me and nothing is more important than ensuring their safety. This has been a traumatic experience for all of us, I am very grateful that no one was hurt.
I’ve had so many incredible experiences and successes over the last 12 months but, to be honest, the best year of my football life so far feels like I can’t celebrate.
People who commit heinous crimes have no idea of the damage they cause to people’s lives. I hope they are found and justice is served so that no other family goes through what we went through.
I appreciate everyone’s messages and the support of my friends, colleagues and club. On a more positive note, I would like to thank everyone for their support throughout the past year. I wish you and your family a happy 2024.”
