[Saba Sports News] Recently, UFC star Islam Makhachev was robbed in Italy and has asked the thieves to return Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s sneakers to him. Makhachev has been on a road trip in Italy recently, when a suitcase containing valuable items was stolen from him. Makhachev said: “My road trip to Italy was going well, but now I don’t like Italy anymore. Let me tell you how I got robbed here: all I have left is this wallet and my passport. The kind thieves left my passport… The most valuable item in the suitcase was a pair of sneakers, which Khvicha Kvaratskhelia gave me after his last match. Thieves, if you don’t like football, please give the sneakers back to me.” In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final last midweek, Paris Saint-Germain beat Liverpool 2-0 at home. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia scored a goal and gave his match-worn sneakers to Makhachev, who was in attendance at the stadium, after the game.
The editor believes that the 34-year-old Makhachev possesses outstanding mixed martial arts skills, yet this did not stop him from being robbed by thieves in Italy. Makhachev later comforted his fans, saying: “Everything is fine now, don’t worry. They also left my prayer mat, and I don’t need anything else.”
