Napoli's Arkadiusz Milik robbed after Champions League win over Liverpool - report

Napoli striker Arkadiusz Milik was robbed at gunpoint by two men on a motorbike as he drove home from Wednesday's Champions League win over Liverpool, Naples newspaper Il Mattino reported on Thursday.

Poland international Milik was driving through the Varcaturo district at around 2 a.m. when the motorbike blocked the road and forced him to stop, the report said.

One of the men pointed a gun at Milik and made him hand over a Rolex watch. Naples police could not immediately be reached for comment.

Two years ago, Napoli forward Lorenzo Insigne -- who scored the last-minute winner against Liverpool on Wednesday -- and his wife were mugged in the city in similar circumstances.

Media reports said the robbers told Insigne to "score a goal for us" in his next match.

Team captain Marek Hamsik was robbed in 2013, as his wife had been two years earlier.
