Former Nigeria international player, Nwankwo Kanu has said he is impressed by the way the Russian authorities handled the theft of $11,000 from his luggage in Moscow.

Recall that the incident took place as the former Arsenal star took part in a World Cup promotional game between FIFA Legends and the Russia Legends, to open the World Cup Football Park.

However, the fund has been returned to the former Ajax man.

Narrating how the incident took place, Kanu told KweséESPN that, “As soon as I got to the hotel and opened my suitcase, I knew something was wrong.

“When I opened the second bag, it was the same thing, I was in shock.”

According to him, “Throughout the game, they were keeping me updated with their progress. That is how I knew they had found those responsible for it.

“I was impressed by the way they handled everything. It didn’t even take up to one day. In some places, they might have been going round and round and nothing would come out of it.

“But these guys were very professional and I am relieved that they resolved everything so quickly.”
