DFL announce quarantine for all Bundesliga clubs to finish season | OneFootball

The DFL have announced new quarantine measures that will be applied by all Bundesliga and 2.Bundesliga clubs in order to finish the season safely.

With COVID-19 cases rising in Germany, there are fears over an outbreak threatening the conclusion to the 2020/21 campaign.

Hertha BSC recently had to postpone three matches after a number of cases were found within the first-team squad and staff.

However, there will be measures in place to combat this with all players, coaching team and first-team supervisors required to go into ‘quasi-quarantine’ from May 3 for two weeks.

This means the people involved can only be at home, or go to the training grounds or stadium during this period.

As well as this, from May 12, all 36 clubs will go into a ‘quarantine training camp’ for the final two matchdays until May 22/23.

Should any player or member of staff need to leave the camp for a specific reason during this time they will have to produce a negative rapid test to be allowed back in.
