Jena (dpa) - Representatives of FC Carl Zeiss Jena and ZFC Meuselwitz have expressed skepticism about the prompt resumption of game operations in the Northeast Regional Football League in view of the continued high number of corona infections.

"Anyone who makes a living with sport should get special treatment, but only within the framework of what the social situation gives," said Meuselwitz President Hubert Wolf of the "Thuringian General" (Wednesday).

Before the NOFV presidium meeting this Friday, there are signs that regular corona tests could become a condition for game operations.

"But monthly costs of 30,000 euros would not be affordable for clubs with a budget of 700,000 to one million euros," said Wolf.

Jena's managing director Chris Förster also expressed doubts about continuing games in December.

"From our point of view, it would be sensible to exchange information about the situation again between Christmas and New Year and then decide how to proceed in the new year," said Förster.

Most recently, champions 1. FC Lok Leipzig in particular had campaigned for an early winter break and the continuation of the game in January.
