The LASK leader admits in a press release Thursday night that there have been violations of crown rules in training. During training, “distance rules were not constantly observed,” said the top Austrians.
The images, which were broadcast to the Bundesliga and the other clubs and have now landed on the Internet, are said to have been captured by a camera allegedly illegally connected, police said.
In the press release, the Linzers point out that the costs of the PCR tests would be borne by themselves, as the health of all actors is said to be “first” if the test intervals were kept short. Therefore, a “risk of contagion within the scope of our training is de facto excluded.” “Therefore, there was no risk to our players or anyone else at any time,” said the Linz-based company, whose measures should be stricter than those required for free training.
The press release continues: “It was and is far from us to obtain, as is now supposed, an unfair competitive advantage through training measures.” This is exactly what the other eleven Bundesliga teams accused the Linzers of. LASK does not respond to the competition charge of having conducted unauthorized team training. There is also no explicit denial in this.
The Linzers promise full cooperation with the Bundesliga Senate 1.
The broadcast in the newsroom:

“Regarding the accusations made today by the Bundesliga, we note the following:
In order not to jeopardize game and training operations, LASK has been subjecting its players to tight PCR testing at its own expense for a long time. Because the health of everyone involved is our top priority, the testing intervals were deliberately kept short.
In light of these facts, the risk of contagion is de facto excluded as part of our training. Therefore, there was no risk to our players or anyone else at any time. Rather, it should be noted that LASK measures are demonstrably more stringent than those prescribed for free training.
It was and is far from us, as is now supposed, to gain an unfair competitive advantage through training measures. Like a camera illegally held in the course of a nighttime robbery, distance rules were not consistently observed in training. We take note of this and will cooperate in any way with the Bundesliga Senate 1 and explain ourselves there. We ask that you understand that, due to ongoing Bundesliga proceedings, we will not be making public comments on this. “
