Hertha star Kalou films how he shakes hands with other players, and debuts
Hertha forward Salomon Kalou posted an explosive video on Facebook. Despite the corona virus, he naturally shakes hands with various players in the booth. His club Hertha BSC has now fired the 34-year-old.
Bundesliga club Hertha Berlin suspends Salomon Kalou with immediate effect.
With a Facebook video, Salomon Kalou made several crown offenses visible in the Bundesliga club Hertha BSC. The Ivorian striker was filmed on Facebook on his way to training. When they arrived at the club facilities in the capital, Kalou greeted several players and colleagues with a handshake.
«With the video from the booth, Salomon Kalou violated the fundamental internal rules of the team and showed behavior that is not appropriate for the situation and does not correspond to the rules of conduct of the club»
Extract from Hertha BSC’s message.
In the locker room, Kalou shows his pay stub in an envelope. A player who was not caught on camera says he should check the payroll, that there have been inconsistencies in the professionals’ pay cuts. For example, players were probably retained more than the agreed 15 percent.
Kalou’s neighbor Vedad Ibisevic spoke up and said: “15? They only deducted eleven percent. A lively discussion ensues among the players as to whether the club wants to “cheat” on them. One possible explanation for Ibisevic’s lower pay cut could be that the Bosnian, unlike colleagues like Salomon Kalou, is the father of a family.
Kalou then leaves the cabin to undergo a crown test. In a side room, a Hertha employee taunts defender Jordan Torunarigha and realizes that Kalou is filming the scene on his cell phone. The request “Room, please delete it now!” The offensive player only recognizes with a smile.

Even after Kalou has been warned that the video could cause trouble, as it shows that there are more than two people in the room, the former Chelsea star does not end the live broadcast. Viewers may still know that Hertha expects to get the test results on Tuesday morning, so if negative results are found, they can return to the team’s regular training the same day.
DFL: “Absolutely Unacceptable”
Kalous’s live broadcast arrives for the German Football League (DFL) at the most stupid moment. The German professional footballer is desperately awaiting approval for the Bundesliga restart on Wednesday after Chancellor Angela Merkel’s conference with prime ministers.
I’m sorry if my behavior gives the impression that I’m not taking Corona seriously. I really didn’t think and was happy that our tests were all negative.
Salomon Kalou apologizes.
Politicians were presented with a 41-page safety and hygiene concept, on the basis of which a possible restart of the league should be discussed. Of course, this also assigns top priority to hygiene regulations and authorization from the Federal Government.
Kalou’s video is not the first emotion in recent days. Two players and a physiotherapist from 1. FC Köln had tested positive for Covid-19, after which Birger Verstraete from Cologne had given a television interview about the strange handling of the crown pandemic and was seriously concerned about his partner previously sick. The next day, the Belgian apologized in a message from the club for his statements and regretted not having previously addressed the club’s medical staff with his questions and concerns.
