Manchester United footballer Angel Di Maria has put his mega Cheshire mansion up for sale after his wife refused to return to the place following a burglary.
The family was eating dinner at their home a few weeks ago when burglars used scaffolding poles to smash their way into his home through patio doors and robbed them.
After the incident, the family moved to a hotel while a security company upped the security at their home.
Mrs. Di Maria still refused to return to the house forcing Di Maria to put the $6.5million home up for sale while they look for another one.
Earlier in January 31, 2015, it was reported that a gang of three armed thugs reportedly smashed the patio doors to the winger’s Cheshire mansion while he was at home with his family but the burglars made away with nothing after the alarm went off.
Since the attempted robbery attack which led the Argentina international to move his family out of the luxury 6-bedroom pad in the leafy Cheshire village of Prestbury to The Lowry Hotel in Manchester, a negotiation has been opened towards the sale of the mansion.
