The 28-year-old told the Sun on Sunday: 'Yes, I was robbed. They have stolen everything from me. I heard absolutely nothing. It is as if they had put something in my apartment for me to fall asleep.

'They could have kidnapped my kids, and I wouldn't have noticed at all.'

Last year it was reported a gangster had an affair with Lovren's wife.

The player was allegedly at the centre of a £3.5million extortion plot and has told of his fears his children could be kidnapped.
