Paige, 23, had returned from a shopping trip. A window was smashed at the rear and the thief is believed to have fled with valuables.

She was not injured but the incident prompted Raheem, 24, to buy a rottweiler, called Okan, and to improve security.

A source said: “Paige was obviously distraught. She had her hands full of shopping when she came in to find the intruder.

“She was terrified and the man escaped. Raheem was so shaken he hired a 24/7 security team and paid £15,000 for the guard dog from a specialist protection firm.”

Sterling posted pics of himself with Okan on Instagram and wrote: “How are you spending Halloween? Big Okan is trick or treating for Halloween.”

The break-in was one of a string of raids in the posh neighbourhood in recent months.

Raheem is the latest victim of burglars dubbed “The Away Day Robbers”, who target footballers’ homes when they are due to play a game.

A worker near Sterling’s mansion said: “There’s a security vehicle stationed at the gates of his home 24/7.”

Sterling’s agent was contacted prior to publication.
