FOOTBALL PLAYERS are buying fierce watchdogs when knife raiders emerged taking £ 350,000 from England’s Dele Alli watches.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka of Man Utd is among the stars who catch huge hounds from security companies.
Dele was beaten at home and a source said: “All the players are concerned about this. Who wants to be robbed at home? Whoever you are is horrible.
“The players talk to each other directly or through small cliques.
“They get a lot of attention when they are out, and their home is a place to relax. But people are now coming in and thinking, “This (coronavirus blockade) is a good time to catch him for what he has there.”
Wan-Bissaka and teammate Jesse Lingard, owner of a £ 75,000 watch, posted online photos of Leicestershire’s Chaperone K9 dogs.
Their breeds, mostly German and Belgian Shepherds, sell for £ 15,000.
The firm trains them for a year to deal with threats including robbery and road rage. Clients include Paul Pogba and Stormzy.
Dele Spurs teammate Hugo Lloris recently purchased an Elite Protection safety dog.
Players also plan to stop flaunting items on social media after Dele’s ordeal.
The watches are viewed as a must-have for young stars, with various collections of £ 1 million.
Some store them in safes, but others keep them at home.
England hero Dele Alli returned to training with the Spurs squad today despite the terrifying raid.
In January last year, the brother of Marcus Rashford, Dane and Tyler Alexander-Arnold, brother of the Liverpool Trent ace, were stripped of their £ 25,000 watches after a six-man gang wielding a machete and a baseball bat , broke into a fast food restaurant in Moss Side Manchester.
Their cars were also stolen in the raid.
And in 2017, Andy Carroll was followed by two men on a motorcycle while driving from West Ham training ground.
They pulled up alongside him and demanded his £ 22,000 Rolex before chasing after him.
