Raheem Sterling: Two men arrested after break-in at England World Cup star’s family home in Oxshott

Police have made two arrests after England footballer Raheem Sterling’s family home was burgled while he was in Qatar at the World Cup.

Surrey Police have said it is investigating an attempted burglary near the Chelsea star’s home in Oxshott.

Two people were arrested on Tuesday night during the incident.

The force is looking at whether this is linked with Saturday’s break-in at Sterling’s family home.

His partner, Paige Milian, reported a burglary to the police at the weekend after discovering valuables - such as watches and jewellery - had been stolen.

The Chelsea player left England’s World Cup base in Qatar to return to the UK ahead of the team’s last-16 encounter with Senegal.

It is unknown whether he will fly back to the Middle East ahead of Saturday quarter-final against France.

“Two men were arrested on suspicion of attempted burglary last night (6 December) in the Oxshott area.

“They are currently in custody,” a Surrey Police statement issued on Wednesday read.

“Following reports of suspicious activity around 6.40pm, a number of resources were deployed, including the dog unit and the police helicopter.

“Our colleagues from British Transport Police also provided assistance.

“Enquiries remain ongoing to establish whether there are any links between these arrests and the break-in reported to us over the weekend.”
