In a shocking incident that has left the football world reeling, a high-end Mercedes worth £300,000 belonging to a Manchester United player was vandalised in what appears to be a deliberate attack. The vehicle, owned by Michael Sansoni, was reportedly targeted while parked in a secure location.
Greater Manchester Police have launched an urgent investigation into the incident, which saw the luxury car sustain significant damage. Sources close to the player suggest this was not a random act, but rather a calculated move against the footballer.
Footballer Targeted in Brazen Attack
The vandalism occurred just days after Sansoni's impressive performance in United's recent Premier League match. The timing has led to speculation about possible motives behind the attack, with some suggesting it could be related to his rising profile in English football.
"This was clearly not an accident," an insider revealed. "The damage was too precise, too targeted. Someone wanted to send a message."
Police Appeal for Information
Authorities are examining CCTV footage from the area and have appealed to the public for any information that might lead to the perpetrators. "We're treating this as a serious criminal damage case," a police spokesperson confirmed.
The incident has sparked outrage among Manchester United fans, with many taking to social media to express their support for Sansoni and condemnation of the attack.
Club officials have declined to comment on the matter, but sources indicate they're providing full support to the player during this unsettling time.
