He is clearly one of the men in form on the side of Olympique de Marseille this season. Arrived in 2019 in the Phocaean City, Valentin Rongier lives a full season as an indisputable holder in midfield. The 26-year-old former FC Nantes player seems to be thriving alongside Dimitri Payet and Steve Mandanda, and he also made a very good performance during the OM-PSG clasico which was played last Sunday. Unfortunately for him, this beautiful evening was spoiled by an unfortunate event to say the least.
As revealed Provence yesterday, Valentin Rongier was the victim of a burglary during the match being played at the Stade Vélodrome. Installed on the side of Cassis, the footballer would have realized this when he returned home after the match. Burglars have broken into his home and this is not the first time, since it is the second burglary suffered by the Marseillais. After notifying the police, investigators from the Aubagne research brigade, as well as criminal investigation technicians from the gendarmerie, went there to ascertain the facts.
This kind of offense is not uncommon among footballers since from Paris to Marseille, burglaries on match days are more and more frequent. Lately, Marquinhos confided in the subject, but this kind of situation happened to other Parisian players like Angel Di Maria or Thiago Silva. On the OM side, Boubacar Kamara and Luan Peres were also victims of burglaries recently.
