Casillas’ maid arrested for stealing watches from ex-Spain keeper | OneFootball

A domestic worker of the former goalkeeper of Real Madrid, Iker Casillas, was detained along with another person a few days after the theft of five of his luxury watches, the police and Spanish press reported this Friday.

The National Police clarified "the theft of five high-end watches that occurred inside the residence of a former professional player in Madrid," the agency stated in a communiqué.

When questioned by AFP about the identity of the victim, the police did not respond, but several Spanish media outlets point to Iker Casillas, former captain of the Spanish national team, winner of the 2010 World Cup and three Champions Leagues.

"The complaint was filed on October 16, and after a swift investigation, on October 21, a man and a woman were detained" who "intended to leave the country imminently," the police added.

"The woman worked as a domestic worker in the residence," specifies the text, informing that it was possible to "recover two of the stolen watches."

Thefts in the homes of football players in Madrid are not uncommon. In recent years, stars like Karim Benzema, Rodrygo, and Dani Carvajal have suffered robberies in their homes.

In 2019, the Spanish Civil Guard and Europol announced the dismantling of a network of thieves targeting players from Atlético de Madrid and Real Madrid.
