Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen has broken his silence after his family were the victim of a home invasion last week.

Vertonghen was in Germany for Spurs' Champions League clash at RB Leipzig when wife Sophie and their two children were at the £3million home as four men with machetes and knives burst in.

The masked gang fled with electrical goods on Tuesday evening.

Vertonghen was an unused sub in Germany as Spurs crashed out 4-0 on aggregate to RB Leipzig.

The Belgian defender, 32, told The Sun of the raid: “I'm OK. Obviously it's a big shock for everyone.

“The family are in shock but OK. It is what it is."

Asked what was stolen, he said: “I'm sorry I can't tell you. We want to keep it as private as we can."
