Last month, a raid on the home of Manchester City forward Jack Grealish resulted in a dead-end for police investigating the crime. Grealish was away playing for his team against Everton at the time, and family members were inside the recently purchased property watching him play.

Following the attack, Grealish took to Instagram to express his devastation, stating that it was a traumatic experience and that he was grateful no one was hurt. He also expressed hope that the perpetrators would be found and brought to justice.

However, a new report from The Sun newspaper suggests that there may be little relief in finding the assailants. Police now suspect that an overseas gang was involved, leading to “zero leads” in their investigation despite exhaustive inquiries. The security source quoted in the report believes that the involvement of a foreign gang, potentially from South America, makes it increasingly unlikely that the case will be solved.

In the meantime, Manchester City and Grealish are focused on their upcoming Premier League match against Brentford. The team is hoping to maintain their pursuit of Liverpool and Arsenal at the top of the division after a strong winning streak since returning from the FIFA Club World Cup in December.

The report surrounding the raid on Grealish’s home sheds light on the difficulties of investigating such crimes and the challenges of finding those responsible. As Grealish and his team continue to pursue success on the pitch, they will also be dealing with the fallout from this disturbing incident that has affected their personal lives.
