Manchester United to review security measures for players after break-in at Victor Lindelof's house

Manchester United will review security measures for their players following a break-in at Victor Lindelof's house while he was away.

Lindelof's wife, Maja, revealed there was a break-in at their house on Wednesday night when Lindelof was playing for United in their 3-1 Premier League win at Brentford.

Maja Nilsson-Lindelof was at home with the couple's two sons when the break-in occurred but they managed to hide in a room. Lindelof will miss United's match against West Ham on Saturday following the traumatic event and Rangnick said the club was due to discuss the situation with the players at The Lowry, where United are staying tonight in preparation for the West Ham game. "We will have a meeting at our hotel where the club will speak to the players about what type of actions can be taken to increase the level of security, what is necessary and where the club can support players in those areas," Rangnick explained. "This is something the club will speak to the players about in the next couple of weeks and hopefully make their houses more safe and secure in the future." Lindelof suffered an episode at Norwich last month and had to wear a heart monitor before he contracted Covid-19 in late December.

In between, the Lindelofs' youngest son, Francis, was treated in hospital for viral meningitis. Mrs Nilsson-Lindelof wrote on her Instagram page: "During Victor's game this Wednesday night we had a break-in at our house in Manchester.
