National coach Joachim Löw can also fall back on the four Champions League finalists playing in England in his squad at the EM dress rehearsal of the German national soccer team against Latvia. “That has been clarified,” said DFB director Oliver Bierhoff on Saturday at the training camp in Seefeld.
The Chelsea trio Kai Havertz, Antonio Rüdiger and Timo Werner as well as Ilkay Gündogan from Manchester City will be able to travel to Germany on Sunday with the other 22 national players from the training camp in Tyrol without having to be quarantined there. The last international match before the European Championship finals will take place on Monday (8.45 p.m. / RTL) in Düsseldorf.
After returning from the premier class final in Portugal a week ago, the quartet had “been in England for less than 24 hours,” said Bierhoff. This passage in the travel regulations could be used by the DFB. The UK is classified as a virus variant area by the federal government. Anyone entering Germany from such a region actually has to be in quarantine for 14 days according to the current Corona regulations.
