MILAN, Italy (AP) - Thieves broke into soccer star Ronaldinho's house and made off with thousands of dollars worth of goods but left behind the AC Milan midfielder's Golden Ball trophy, Italian media reports said Wednesday.

Ronaldinho was in his native Brazil when the burglary took place early Tuesday morning, Corriere della Sera reported. Four thieves stole mainly jewelry and watches, Corriere reported.

Ronaldinho, who won the Golden Ball award as the best player in Europe in 2005, is in his first season with Milan. He recently moved into the house, which has been broken into twice before while previous owners lived there, including former Milan player Riccardo Sogliano.

Yup, that's Italy!

Welcome to Liverpool, Dinho.

Hello, hello! Not good to hear, though.

Yup, it must be the scousers.
