Kiel (dpa / lno) - World champion Niklas Landin from THW Kiel fears in view of the corona pandemic and the increasing shortage of deadlines for the handball season.

“How we want to do that for the rest of the season is questionable.

That will be more stressful and stressful with our scheduling, ”said the Danish goalkeeper of the German record champions on Sunday evening in the program“ Sportclub ”on NDR television.

«I hope we don't have to end the season again.

In the worst case, that can be the topic. "

Due to a positive corona test with a player from THW Kiel, the Bundesliga game against SC DHfK Leipzig scheduled for Sunday was canceled and has to be postponed.

The Champions League game of Kiel at HC Motor Zaporozhye in Ukraine next Wednesday will most likely be canceled by the European Handball Federation (EHF).

In the Bundesliga alone, THW has to make up three more games.

The affected player from Kiel was immediately isolated.

After consulting the health authorities, the entire squad was quarantined as a precaution.

"I think it's a shame that we have to be in quarantine," said the 32-year-old Landin.

Last season, the Bundesliga season was canceled and THW Kiel was declared champion.

The 2019/20 Champions League only ended in December with the Final Four in Cologne, which the Kiel team also won.

World handball player Landin successfully defended the world title in Egypt with the Danish national team at the end of January.
