Gianluigi Donnarumma and his then-pregnant girlfriend suffered a terrifying break-in in Paris in 2023, a court was told.
The Man City goalkeeper and Alessia Elefante, whom he has since married and had a child with, were hit, bound and threatened with a knife after robbers broke into their flat.
The incident took place in Avenue Montaigne, one of Paris’ most famous and luxurious streets, with Donnarumma and his partner asleep at the time.
The keeper, 27, was then at PSG, and a Paris criminal court is currently conducting a two-day hearing about the ordeal.
Donnarumma is not expected to give evidence but a witness statement
