Laliga

continues in its crusade to shield football from

Covid

and they have taken extreme precautions to the point that

stadium

dressing rooms

have become prohibited territory.

The risk of squads changing and showering in them after matches have led the body chaired by

Javier Tebas

to hire

barracks

with showers where footballers can wash up after the matches.

So far, both locals and visitors left the stadiums without going through the shower, some on their way to their homes and others from the concentration hotel.

Facing winter this situation was not sustainable, so the luxurious changing rooms of some First Division stadiums will be replaced by prefabricated facilities where, five by five, the players go through the shower.

"It involves investing a lot of money because the changing rooms cannot be used for more than a few minutes, but it is necessary. It is much more difficult to finish this one than the previous one, because then the

Eurocup

was suspended

and there were dates to recover. This year impossible, because if not there is a Eurocup, UEFA would be ruined ", explained the president of LaLiga during a presentation in Valencia.

No talk of coaches

According to LaLiga protocol, "the changing rooms are

areas of high risk of transmission

", so the players hardly step on them: the five minutes that go from the end of the warm-up to the start of the game and at halftime.

The technical talk of the coaches is no longer made within those four walls, but the last instructions are given in the concentration hotel, as well as the treatments and bandages that the footballers need.

During the break, not even the substitutes can listen to the instructions of the coaches because they cannot access together with the rest of their teammates.

These guidelines provoked a letter of protest addressed to LaLiga from

the Technical Committee of coaches

signed by its president, José Ramón Cueto Lobo, and in which he demanded a modification of the protocol.

LaLiga never answered despite public criticism from technicians such as José Luis

Mendilibar

or

Sergio Fernández

.
