In March 2021, the Argentine was substituted off during his team’s match against Nantes and was seen in a serious-looking conversation with manager Mauricio Pochettino on the sideline. The player left Parc des Princes to be with his family after a group of burglars had managed to steal a safe from Di María’s home. The winger had been robbed of jewellery and watches worth at least $600,000.Thankfully, no one was hurt during the incident in the Fati residence. The only injured person remains Ansu Fati himself – the young midfielder still recovering from the thigh injury he picked up two weeks ago in the thrilling 3-3 draw at Celta Vigo.
