“Should the politicians decide that we can play Bundesliga football again, we will need full team training again at some point,” Bobic, 48, a former Germany striker, told broadcaster RTL.Bundesliga clubs have been back in training for three weeks, but so far only in small groups, observing social distancing and strict hygiene measures to reduce the risk of infection.

If the German league is granted permission to resume, the players will face a race to get match fit again and Werder Bremen director Frank Baumann shares Bobic’s concern. The Ministry for Labour has even suggested players and match officials wear face masks and gloves during games, which has been greeted with scepticism by some clubs.
