United star Angel Di Maria suffered a ‘terrifying raid’ at his home just hours after his team’s 3-1 win over Leicester on Saturday.

The Argentina international was reportedly at home with his family when thieves tried to smash his patio doors down on Saturday night. But the crooks fled empty-handed after triggering an alarm system at his Cheshire home.

The former Real Madrid midfielder’s agent confirmed the incident on Sunday.

The 26-year-old is said to have been left ‘shaken’.

Di Maria, 26, played 90 minutes in the win at Old Trafford and is believed to have just got home from the game when the attempted raid took place.
