Sinsheim / Mainz (dpa) - Sports director Alexander Rosen from TSG 1899 Hoffenheim has spoken out in favor of considering European Cup games in one place again in the Corona crisis.

“We should think about such things,” said the 41-year-old on Saturday evening in the ZDF “sports studio” with a view to the past season.

Back then, the winners of the Champions and Europa League were ultimately determined in tournament form.

The North Baden Bundesliga club and Europa League participant currently has seven corona cases with their players and came in the afternoon, heavily weakened, to a 3: 3 against VfB Stuttgart.

On Thursday the Kraichgauer will compete at Slovan Liberec in the Czech Republic.

However, Rosen does not want to compare the international club games with the international games so criticized in the pandemic.

50 people from 40 different locations would come together there.

"I see the Europa League games a little differently than the international matches, we're going to Liberec as a bubble," said the manager, who emphasized that professional football is currently in a privileged situation.
