  Real ⁠Madrid defender Eder Militao's house ​was burgled ​during his side's 2-1 victory over Barcelona on Sunday, with El Mundo reporting on Saturday that thieves took ⁠jewellery and watches valued at €350,000 ($391,000).
The ⁠Brazilian was on the bench for Real Madrid when thieves entered his ‌home through a ​third-floor bathroom ⁠window and ransacked Militao's ​bedroom. Bags, watches ‌and jewellery were stolen.
Militao's family were ​in the house watching the Clasico match on the ground floor and did not notice anything suspicious.
The ‌burglary was the latest in ​a series targeting high-profile footballers in ​Spain ‌in ⁠recent years.
Former Barcelona forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang suffered a broken ​jaw during an armed ⁠robbery in ​2022. Real Betis striker Troy Parrott and former Paris St Germain goalkeeper Sergio Rico ​were victims of robberies ​this month.
