The injured Brazilian had been watching his team take on Man City from the sideline when he received the security alert on his phone.

The Prem star has now posted a short video on Instagram with the caption ‘meu amigao’ accompanied with a blue heart on his story.

This roughly translates to “my best friend” in Portuguese.

While at St James’ Park Joelinton immediately contacted the police who raced to the address in Northumberland, shortly after 7.30pm.

By the time officers arrived at the multi-million pound home the attackers had fled.

No one is understood to have been inside the property when the home invaders struck.

No arrests have been made and enquiries into the raid at the 27-year-old’s home are ongoing.

A Northumbria Police spokesperson said: “Shortly before 7.30pm yesterday police received a call from a concerned homeowner who reported that three men were inside their home.

“Thankfully the homeowner was not home but had received a security alert on their phone and immediately reported concerns to police.

“Police were deployed to the scene however, those alleged to be involved had fled the scene.

“Enquires remain ongoing and anyone with information is asked to contact us via 101, or the ‘Report’ pages of our website, quoting log NP-20240113-0835.”

The Sun revealed last month that Jack Grealish’s terrified family hit panic buttons as a gang of burglars looted his new home.

Around ten relatives were cheering on the Manchester City star in his televised match at Everton when they heard noises upstairs and dogs barking frantically.

Despite extensive security and perimeter fencing around Jack’s   lavish home, the crooks got in and fled with £1million of watches and jewellery.

Just weeks before, West Ham star Kurt Zouma‘s family home in Essex was targeted while he was inside.

The robbers also stole jewellery and high-end watches worth £1million – with Zouma forced to miss his team’s game against Crystal Palace.

Cops rushed to his home while he was at St James’ Park
