The international football matches kick off from this week and will last for another two weeks. However, health authorities in Italy aren’t letting players travel to their respective national teams if any player of the club squad has tested positive for Corona. A lot of teams have had players testing positive which include Inter, Roma and Lazio. So, in a huge blow for many teams, players from these clubs will have sit on quarantine for at least 10 days before joining their national teams.

I say let’s boycott the national teams – Marotta

Lukaku

A lot of players may be deprived of playing for their national team which includes Lukaku, Immobile, Vidal, Sanchez and many more players. They will be hoping for this situation to be resolved immediately. Inter CEO Marotta speaking on this issue to Gazzetta Dello Sport said, “This situation is unfair. There is a grey area in the lack of centrality of this way of management. In this way, each local health authority becomes central to the management of the clubs. I go further, if faced with a case that’s positive and this is the overall management of the situation, then I say let’s boycott the national teams.

He further added, “Yes, I mean it. This is where the credibility of the system is concerned. Football must go on, it suits everyone and then the government should give us a hand and set certain rules. This situation is creating inequality, so I demand the Minister for Sport Spadafora intervenes.”
