It has been almost four months since the bad experience that she had to go through with her children when a group of robbers entered their house to take everything they could. Alice Campello, the wife of Álvaro Morata, revealed how she lived through that dreadful episode, which even left her uneasy for many days afterwards.
"Those days were very hard. I couldn't even wash my face because I thought someone was behind me. It was tough," confessed the Italian model to 'Deportes Cuatro'. The robbery was aggravated by the fact that not only was she at home, but also her two young children, as Morata was with the Spanish national team.
Wouldn't wish it on anyone
Álvaro Morata, at that time, was focused on the match of the Spanish national team against the Faroe Islands when he received the terrible news. "I wouldn't wish this on anyone, having your family inside," said the footballer in this regard.
The intruders entered with firearms and with the striker's family inside. The police arrived at the time of the robbery, although the members of the gang managed to escape with several objects of great economic and sentimental value.
Modus operandi
These gangs take advantage of the fact that players and their families are at stadiums watching the game to break into houses where there are normally no people. However, Álvaro Morata's case was one of the few where his wife and children were inside.
The gang was caught
Last Friday, the Civil Guard, with the collaboration of the National Police, dismantled the gang that robbed the houses of several Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid footballers. They have also managed to recover several items, including Thomas Partey's Champions League runner-up medal.
According to the High Court of Justice of Madrid, the three detainees who are already in Soto del Real prison are of Albanian nationality and are charged with belonging to a criminal group, active participation in fourteen robberies in inhabited houses, document forgery, and assault against authority.
