The Portuguese midfielder's luxury Cheshire home in Nether Alderley was targeted by thieves at around 8.30pm - just as United were getting taken apart in their calamitous 4-1 Champions League loss.

A source told Daily Mail Sport that the player's family were not at the property and that the thieves were thought to have been in and out in about five minutes.

Officers attended the scene and on arrival there was no trace of the suspects. > > 'However, officers discovered that there had been a burglary at the address and a number of items had been stolen.'

Police are reviewing CCTV from surrounding properties in an effort to hunt down the gang.
