Germany international has £150k watch stolen by street performer’s ‘nasty dance trick’.. but team-mate tracks down crook


GERMANY striker Kevin Volland had his £150,000 watch stolen by a street performer – before his team-mate tracked down the culprit.

Volland, 31, was enjoying a night out in Berlin with team-mate Jerome Roussillon when the incident occurred a fortnight ago.

The duo and two women were out celebrating Union Berlin’s 1-0 win over Hoffenheim.

However, at 3am a 16-year-old approached Volland and followed him before breaking into dance.

According to German outlet Bild, he then took the watch from Volland while the striker was distracted.

Roussillon subsequently ran after the perpetrator and caught him before retrieving the watch.
