Scousers: Kuyt becomes 5th Liverpool played to be burgled
No wonder United fans have so many chants and jokes on Liverpool mocking the the abduncy of thefts and crime in their city. Even the above picture mocks them and suggests the tires of this plane standing at Liverpool airport was taken away by thieves.
and now… Dirk Kuyt has become the fifth Liverpool footballer to be burgled in less than 18 months.
The 27-year-old striker’s luxury home in Woolton was targeted on Thursday while he was away on international duty with home country Holland.
Jerzy Dudek, Liverpool’s goalkeeper from the 2005 Champions League final penalty shoot-out, was burgled in June 2006.
Dudek, who now plays for Real Madrid, was on holiday in Poland when thieves took his Porsche car, jewellery and a large haul of football memorabilia from across his career, including his European Cup medal.
Pepe Reina was burgled while he played for Liverpool in last May’s Champions League semi-final against Chelsea. He also had his Porsche taken during the raid, among other things, with the car later found burnt-out in West Derby.
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger had his Wirral home burgled in September last year and striker Peter Crouch’s house in Alderley Edge was targeted in the same month while he was on England duty.
