Salomon Kalou can be seen in a video with a handshake that greets Hertha BSC teammates and employees. Therefore, he violated the distance rules to contain the crown pandemic.
Salomon Kalou caused a stir with a live Facebook video. Now the Hertha BSC club and the player himself have commented on this action and have taken a position.
“With his video, Salomon Kalou has not only caused great harm to Hertha BSC, but especially in the current social discussion on the resumption of the game and the role of professional football, he gives the impression that individual players do not take seriously to Corona. ” Hertha CEO Sport Michael Preetz quoted on the club’s home page of the capital.
Hertha suspends Kalou
Preetz also emphasizes that the club has always informed its players of current regulations during the Corona period and that Kalou’s misconduct will have consequences that he has not yet discussed in detail.
“I would like to expressly emphasize that we have drawn everyone’s attention to hygiene and distance standards and ensure that they are strictly followed. We are clearly guided by the requirements of the health authority responsible for us and the recommendations of the RKI. Hertha BSC deeply regrets Salomon Kalou’s behavior. Especially since he is an equally deserved and experienced player. However, the extent of the misconduct requires constant action. “
Hertha BSC, therefore, decided to suspend him from training and game operations with immediate effect, the club said.
Kalou apologizes, also with his teammates.
Kalou himself is also quoted on the home page as follows: “I am sorry that my behavior gave the impression that I am not taking Corona seriously. I apologize for that. The opposite is the case, because I am particularly concerned about people in Africa, because medical care is not as good as in Germany. I really didn’t think and was happy that our tests were negative. I would also like to apologize to those shown in the video who did not know that I was broadcasting live and did not want to put myself in such a situation. “
