“Whilst the ultimate violation of privacy and safety, we are thankful to be able to confirm that he and his loved ones are all safe.
“We ask that the privacy of Raheem and his loved ones be respected at this challenging time.”
The Chelsea star's previous home in Surrey was targeted by burglars in 2022, forcing Sterling to fly home early from the England World Cup training camp.
That break-in happened in Oxshott, Leatherhead, and was reported to police on December 3 2022, during the World Cup in Qatar.
Sterling travelled home to be with his family after news of the break-in reached him, missing England’s 3-0 win over Senegal during the tournament.
Jewellery and watches, said to be worth £300,000, were stolen.
Previously, when Sterling lived in Goostrey, Cheshire his home was also targeted by thieves in 2018, who fled when the alarm system was activated.
