Social contacts
should be avoided in order to prevent the schedule from being interrupted.

Bundesliga scandal: Illegal party dissolved in Essen - Gladbach professional among celebrants
On Sunday night, residents made the Essen police aware of a
disturbance of the peace
, and a party was suspected on the upper floor of the "Cafe Extrablatt" in the south of Essen.
When the officers arrived at the restaurant, music echoed from the building, as the
picture
reports.
The police found a group of
people
celebrating
with
alcohol
and water pipes
.
In addition, the windows of the restaurant are said to have been hung with ceilings, one wanted to protect oneself from looks from outside.
One of the
23 people
who had celebrated in the "Cafe Extrablatt" was apparently Gladbach striker
Breel Embolo
.
According to the report, the Swiss was caught partying with seven other men and 15 “scantily clad women” -
without a
mask * or the necessary minimum distance!
Hard corona regulations also apply in North Rhine-Westphalia, which is why the
Borussia professional must
now expect a fine of around 250 euros.
Bundesliga scandal: Borussia professional celebrates a party with 22 people - and is removed from the squad
The image damage caused by Embolo affects the entire Bundesliga, which has been "on probation" since May, as DFL boss
Christian Seifert
warned at the restart after the first lockdown.
“I expect every individual to live up to their responsibility,” said Seifert at the time.
Especially after the scandal surrounding
Salomon Kalou
at the beginning of the pandemic, the Embolo case is an argument for the Bundesliga opponents across Germany.
On Monday evening, Borussia announced that Embolo had been “
removed from the squad as a
precaution for tomorrow's Bundesliga game against Werder Bremen (6:30 pm)
”.
The Swiss national player should “only take part in team training again when there are negative Corona * tests”.
It is not yet known whether further sanctions will follow on the part of the club.
