Shock in Germany by Hertha figure who circumvented the measures of the Covid-19

A storm of proportions broke out in Germany after the Berlin Hertha player Salomon Kalou was suspended suspended for misbehaving against sanitary measures to combat the coronavirus. The Ivorian striker was recorded in the dressing room of his squad while the control tests were carried out on the campus and, in addition, he greeted each of his teammates, contradicting an absolute prohibition to do so.

“Salomon Kalou has violated the locker room rules and his behavior is not adequate, neither with the measures adopted nor with the club’s rules,” Hertha said in a statement. The 34-year-old player also apologized online for what happened, in addition to removing the video from his account.

His case widens doubts about an early resumption of the season. All the first and second division clubs began the mandatory tests last Thursday with the prospect of playing matches again, behind closed doors.

It was considered on May 9 but now that date is considered discarded. At the last meeting of Chancellor Angela Merkel and regional leaders, last Wednesday, a decision was postponed to the present week.
