Athletic Bilbao player Alex Berenguer and his wife were victims of an attempted armed robbery on Monday while he was at home. The Spanish athlete managed to close a glass door that prevented the robbers from entering the property.
According to a report in the Spanish newspaper El Correo, three armed men entered the attacker's villa, who also had a gun pointed at him and his wife, Sofia Jem.
The attempted robbery ended up not having any more serious consequences, and the police were called during the robbery and launched an investigation, given that the three robbers had already fled the scene.
Berenguer has been a key player for Athletic Bilbao, having played 30 games, contributing five goals and five assists this season.
