Elneny’s dad Nasser came across the body of a man when he visited the villa in Mahalla al-Kubra, according to the BBC.

Police have said that the man was attempting to steal electrical cables in the property, before being electrocuted.

Elneny’s family had recently given the house to a charity that would be using it as office space.

The 27-year-old was reportedly informed about what had happened over the phone.

The story follows an attempted carjacking of Elneny’s Gunners team-mates Sead Kolasinac and Mesut Ozil by an armed gang in London last week.
