Three thieves caught breaking into Kondogbia's house during Villarreal match LaLiga Other Valencia stars have suffered the same

The house of Valencia midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia was broken into while he was in Europa League action for his side against Villarreal on Thursday night.

A neighbour detected strange movement in the house and decided to notify the security guards of the residence.

As the guards approached, three people jumped over the fence and escaped through a golf course.

The police found a mallet and several iron bars that use to enter the house.

This is the second time in a week in which Valencia players have suffered an attempted robbery.

Earlier in the week, thieves tried to enter the homes of Gabriel Paulista, Ezequiel Garay and Villarreal player Funes Mori, but did not manage to take any money.
