Serie A players have been continuously targeted by thieves who carry out robberies in their homes.
After Juventus star Angel Di Maria's house was robbed in Turin, the same thing happened to AC Milan defender Theo Hernandez.
According to Italian outlet Repubblica, a gang of criminals broke into and burgled the home of the Rossoneri left-back while he was away at 9pm on Tuesday night while his wife Zoe Cristofoli and their son, a few months old, were present.

Although they were shaken up by the incident, they are understood not to be physically hurt.
Though the value of the stolen objects and cash is not yet known, it is likely the thieves targeted watches, jewels and cash.
As reported by Goal, they made off with a 'very substantial' amount of goods, and Repubblica report the Milan police are now looking into the incident.

Investigators have spoken to Cristofoli, a well-known influencer, and are analysing footage from surveillance cameras.
In Italy, specialised thieves have often targeted the richest and most famous footballers, targeting luxurious homes.
Players in Milan, Turin, Rome and Naples have all been caught up in the phenomenon, often while they are at training or involved in a match.
