In the heated debate about whether professional footballers should be vaccinated, the players' union VDV gives a vaccination requirement little chance of success.
"The introduction of a compulsory vaccination for certain professions would be legally problematic, as it would have to withstand a proportionality test," said VDV managing director Ulf Baranowsky on Monday of the German press agency.
Duisburg - “According to our information, the vaccination rate in German professional football is very high and well above the population average.
In addition, a viable medical concept was developed and implemented, ”emphasized the 47-year-old.
Baranowsky promotes good medical education in terms of health protection.
In the past few days, the discussion about vaccinations for football professionals had increased again.
According to a media report, FC Bayern Munich has announced that it will cut several still unvaccinated professionals part of their salaries.
The "Bild am Sonntag" reported that four players who had to be quarantined should not receive any wages retrospectively for the quarantine week.

Baranowsky added whether the clubs are entitled to do so and what rights and obligations employed footballers have must be clarified under labor law.
“The extent to which there are financial claims for an employee who has been issued with a quarantine order by the competent authority must be checked on a case-by-case basis.
With regard to the salary entitlement of a person who has not been fully vaccinated against Covid-19, the individual regulations in the employment contract must also be taken into account in this case, "said the managing director.
