The public prosecutor's office in Bremen has published new findings in the case of the resigned Werder coach Markus Anfang, which corroborate the suspicion of forging his vaccination card.

According to this, two vaccination appointments in a Cologne vaccination center are documented in the document that the 47-year-old submitted.

According to the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians who operate this vaccination center, none of the two appointments was initially recorded by the centre's IT system.

The public prosecutor therefore assumes that the vaccination card of the former Bundesliga professional is forged.

Your investigations have also shown that the batch number of the vaccine given at the beginning of the first appointment was never inoculated.

According to the Public Prosecutor Frank Passade, the batch number of the second appointment was inoculated - but not on the day specified in the opening document.

Vaccination appointment in Cologne, game in Würzburg

On Thursday evening it became known that the alleged use of a forged vaccination certificate was being investigated towards the beginning.

The Bremen health department reported him to the public prosecutor's office because the authority had noticed several irregularities in the certificate.

For example, on the day of his supposed first vaccination appointment in Cologne, the beginning is said to have had an away game with his then club SV Darmstadt 98 in Würzburg.

Because of the investigation, he resigned as Werder coach a few hours before the Bremen home game against Schalke 04 (1: 1) on Saturday.

According to the public prosecutor's office, the beginning has now hired a lawyer, but has not yet made a statement on the allegations made against him.

“His lawyer will first demand access to the files,” Passade told the German Press Agency on Monday.

Beginning had initially assured that he had been vaccinated and rejected the allegations.
