Milwall FC may need to up its place in the security division, after a watch thief struck for the fifth time, pocketing an £8,000 Cartier timepiece.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Milwall football player<\/a> Josh Wright is the latest victim in a spate of thefts that began in March this year. His £8,000 Cartier watch taken from his jacket pocket while he was training at the club.<\/p>\n

He told The Sun<\/a><\/em>: “"The watch was brand new – I had only just bought it. I felt sick when I went back into the dressing room and discovered it had been stolen.<\/p>\n

"It wasn’t just because the watch was expensive – the insurance should cover that. It was the thought of someone – probably someone I know at the club – going through my pockets."<\/p>\n

Milwall FC is now said to have started an internal investigation, as only a handful of people have access to the dressing room beyond the players.<\/p>\n

There have been suggestions that an employee or possibly even a Lion’s player might be behind the thefts<\/a> after two watches were stolen within three days back in March, but police were unable to recoverer them, nor find any leads.<\/p>\n

Now three more thefts have taken place within a short period of time with two Milwall players having their watches lifted from the dressing room while they were playing Huddersfield last month.<\/p>\n

Wright, who is the younger brother of The Only Way is Essex<\/em> star Mark Wright, said he hopes the person responsible is caught, named and shamed.<\/p>\n
