The same report claims police are still investigating the incident and Roma have offered support out to the player.
Smalling joined Roma Italian club from Manchester United on a permanent deal last year, after having initially joined in the summer of 2019 on a loan deal before making the move permanent 12 months later.
He has been linked with a move away from Roma at the end of the season with Juventus and Inter Milan said to be interested in the England international.
The defender, rated at around £12million, enjoys living in Rome but this horrifying situation could open up doubts about his future.
The reported incident is the latest in a series of cases where intruders have targeted the homes of Serie A footballers, managers and other sporting personalities over the past year.
Earlier this year, the home of Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie was burgled while the American was playing for the Serie A side against SPAL in the Italian Cup quarter-final on January 27.
