Chelsea and England star Frank Lampard has appealed to the thieves who robbed his London home to return his specially-made football boots.
Thieves made off on Wednesday with Lampard’s Aston Martin DB9 and his fiancee’s Mercedes Sports utility vehicle, as well as a television and computer and other items, most of which were found shortly afterwards.
But the midfielder’s Adidas-made Predator Pulse II X-TRX boots have not been retrieved.
The objects of his affection include two pairs of red boots and two pairs of silver and grey boots, each with “Fl” embroidered on the tongue, “Lampard” on the collar and “8” on the heel tab. Using the front door, burglars broke into Lampard’s Chelsea house while he and pregnant fiancee Elen Rives were leeping early Wednesday morning.
A 25-year-old man was arrested Wednesday in connection with the burglary but was later released on bail. (AFP)
