It’s some good news for the pair, who made headlines earlier this year when their Cheshire mansion was raided by thieves.
The footballer spoke out on Instagram about the incident, saying he was “devastated” over the burglary.
“My family mean the world to me and nothing is more important than ensuring their safety. This has been a traumatic experience for all of us, I am just so grateful that nobody was hurt🙏🏼,” he wrote in a post.
“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.”
He added: ”I appreciate the messages from everyone and the support from my friends, teammates and the club. On a more positive note, I’d like to thank everyone for their support throughout this past year, I wish you and your family a happy 2024.”
