JACK Grealish’s fiancée Sasha Attwood and his family were left “shaken” by a break-in during his relatives’ first visit to the mansion.
A gang of burglars ransacked the Prem ace’s £5.6million home while he was in action for Man City against Everton on Wednesday night.
The Sun understands that some of Jack’s closest family were at his 24-acre Cheshire bolthole including Sasha, his parents, gran, two sisters and brother.
The “shaken” group were said to be unfamiliar with the mansion, which Jack moved into just before Christmas, as it was their “first visit”.
A source exclusively told The Sun: “The family are really shaken. The gang took a lot of watches and jewellery.
“Initially, they feared they could be facing a hostage situation or worse.”

The source added: “They executed their raid when Manchester City were playing live on TV and all of his family had gathered downstairs to cheer him on.
“No one was injured but there was a lot of panic – everyone was terrified as they were all so vulnerable.
“It’s an enormous property, so it is understandable why no-one heard anything at first.
“It was also the first time the family had visited and so they were unfamiliar with the property.

“When the dogs went mad, and they could hear people creeping about, they pressed the security panic alarm.
“An emergency crack unit responded immediately with multiple police cars and a chopper deployed.”
Despite extensive security and perimeter fencing around Jack’s home, the crooks got in and fled with £1million of watches and jewellery.
Grealish and 27-year-old model and influencer Sasha bought the “exceptional modern” seven-bed mansion last year but have only just moved in.
On Christmas Day Grealish and Sasha posed with their dog Skye and wrote on Instagram: “Merry Christmas everyone, beautiful day with the family.”
Jack also posted an image of a dinner table set for eight guests and a menu titled “Sasha and Jack Christmas Day 2023”.
In October The Sun told how Jack had won a planning battle to build a leisure suite at the mansion — complete with his own treatment room.
He enjoys a close relationship with his immediate family and has described sister Hollie, 20, as his best friend.
Confirming their investigation, Cheshire Police told The Sun: “At around 9.50pm on Wednesday December 27 police were called to reports of a burglary.
“The caller reported that a number of items had been stolen.
“Officers supported by police dogs and National Police Air Service were deployed and searches were conducted in the local area but there was no trace of the suspects.

“No arrests have been made at this time and enquiries are ongoing.
“Anyone with any information in relation to the incident is asked to contact Cheshire Police.”
