Corona bomb does not seem to burst at Spain | European Football Championship

sport">The other tests carried out on Thursday with the players from the Spanish European Championship selection yielded only negative results.

Precautions

sport">National coach Luis Enrique has taken the necessary precautions in recent days due to the corona threat. Not only did he bring in the Under-21 squad in Tuesday’s exhibition game with Lithuania, he also put together a shadow squad.

“To be honest, this is child’s play compared to some of the things I’ve had to go through”

sport">Rodrigo Moreno (Leeds United), Pablo Fornals (West Ham United), Carlos Soler (FC Valencia CF) and Brais Méndez (Celta de Vigo), Raul Albiol (Villarreal) and Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea) were summoned and entered a so-called parallel bubble forming. However, they seem to be able to resume their vacation soon.

Vaccinate

sport">After all the corona fuss, Spanish politics also suddenly took the bull by the horns. After no exception was previously made for the national football team, the players were vaccinated this week after all.

Luis Enrique

sport">Enrique is not too concerned about the difficult situation he is in with his selection despite everything, he said on Thursday. “To be honest, this is child’s play compared to some of the things I’ve had to go through,” said the national coach whose daughter died in 2019 at the age of 9 from the effects of bone cancer. “We have a plan B, but I hope we don’t have to carry it out.”

Not from selection

sport">Busquets tested positive on Sunday and was sent home immediately. However, Enrique does not intend to remove his captain from the European Championship selection, something Frank de Boer did at Orange with keeper Jasper Cillessen after he had tested positive for the corona virus.

sport">“He is asymptomatic. He feels good and continues to train. We are waiting for him, he will definitely remain on the list,” said Luis Enrique.
