"Unfortunately, today I fell victim to an attack by four cowards who tried to harm me and my family," Canslow wrote.

"When you show resistance, that's what happens unfortunately. Can't understand the convictions that people have. The most important thing for me is that with a lot of luck, my family and I got out of it safely. After so many obstacles I went through in my life, it's just another small obstacle I pass. , As always".

Footballers' homes have in recent years become a target for property offenders, who often operate during games or training.

Cansello, on the other hand, had to experience the trauma while at home.

According to reports in England, representatives from City came to visit the Canslow family after the frightening incident, and the player himself is still debating whether to play against Arsenal on Sunday, given the circumstances.

An official statement from Manchester City said: "We are shocked by what happened to Joao last night, and support him and his family. We will help the police as much as possible to locate the perpetrators."

Cansello is in a tremendous boom in his career, becoming one of the key players at Manchester City this season, with Pep Guardiola using him uniquely as a significant offensive weapon, despite his role on the pitch.
