The Brazilian football legend Zico has filed a report to the French police.

This after being robbed on his way to the OS in Paris. The 71-year-old is said to have lost his bag containing everything from money to expensive watches and jewelry.

The incident occurred when Zico was on the move and had accidentally left the window of his car open.

The exact value of the contents of Zico's stolen bag is unclear. French Le Parisien writes that Zico lost valuables worth almost 5.9 million kronor, while a source to AFP tells that the value is significantly lower than that.

Zico is one of Brazil's best football players of all time and has been invited to the OS in Paris as a guest of the Brazilian OS team.
