In a bizarre incident, a thief snatched Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski's watch from his arm as he arrived for practice on Thursday.

The watch, reportedly worth €70,000, was taken from him as he stopped at the entrance of Barca's practice facility to sign autographs and pose for pictures with fans.

As the Poland striker opened the car window to greet the crowd, a man reportedly snatched the watch off his wrist.
