Police in Dusseldorf are reportedly investigating a complaint that England striker Ivan Toney’s father had a watch stolen at the weekend.
The incident is said to have taken place during the weekend which saw England begin their Euro 2024 campaign with a win over Serbia in Gelsenkirchen, with Ivan Toney Snr having raised a complaint to staff at the Hotel Melia Dusseldorf, according to The Athletic.
They add that the local police were then contacted regarding the alleged theft and that a criminal complaint has been filed.

A number of England players’ families were staying at the Hotel Melia Dusseldorf during England’s first Euro 2024 match, where rooms are available for around £250 per night.
Brentford striker Toney is away with England at a major tournament for the first time and was an unused substitute in Sunday’s 1-0 win over Serbia.
Toney’s inclusion in Gareth Southgate’s final squad came at the end of a season which saw him suspended for the first 20 games as punishment for breaching the FA’s betting regulations.
The 28-year-old netted four times in his 17 Premier League appearances for Brentford this year and will be looking to add to his three England caps in Germany.
England take on Denmark in Frankfurt on Thursday afternoon knowing that a win would seal a place in the last-16. Should they end up topping Group C, then their last-16 fixture would again be in Gelsenkirchen.
