Manchester City midfielder Jack Grealish has released a statement after last week's home invasion.

Grealish's family were forced to enter a 'panic room' as burglars robbed them.

"My family mean the world to me and nothing is more important than ensuring their safety," he wrote on Instagram.

"I can't begin to explain how devastated I am.

"This has been a traumatic experience for all of us. I am just so grateful that nobody was hurt.

"I have had so many amazing experiences and achievements over the last 12 months, but to be honest the best year of my life in football now doesn't feel like something I can celebrate.

"The people that commit these terrible crimes have no idea of the damage they cause to peoples lives. I hope they are found and brought to justice so no other family has to go through what we have."
