Heavy air at FSV Mainz 05: The professionals of the Bundesliga soccer team refused to train on Wednesday afternoon. The club confirmed it at night.
The reason for the players’ strike is said to be the suspension of forward Adam Szalai on Monday. The club’s press spokesperson, Silke Bannick, confirmed to SWR late Wednesday that the training had not taken place. The reason she gave was that there had been “emotional discussions within the team around Adam Szalai.” This confirmed a report in the newspaper “Bild”.

Consequently, the team must demand the withdrawal of the expulsion. Szalai appeared Wednesday morning despite suspension by the track and field unit, which he was not allowed to complete with the team. As a result, the 05 professionals did not start the training session that was scheduled for 4:00 p.m.
The 32-year-old Hungarian exited training on Monday with immediate effect. “We have informed Adam that he will no longer play a role in our sporting plans,” Mainz sporting director Rouven Schröder said at SWR Sport’s request and explained the surprising step: “From our point of view, it is unlikely that Adam take your long awaited times this season. “
In the evening, the association’s board of directors met for an emergency meeting. Mainz 05 wants to report on the subsequent processes at a press conference on Thursday (1pm).
