Re Norwegian players returning to Bundesliga clubs - Haaland. Sörloth, Jarstein. Several German & Norwegian sources reporting if they were to play for their clubs this weekend it would be a violation of NOR quarantine rules potentially carrying fines & even prison under NOR law.
By way of an example, @sportschau is reporting that this would therefore also apply in Germany. Players had to agree to this before being released. Would assume similar for, eg Celtic players in Scotland. More to come no doubt.
Kicker now reporting that BVB for example are relatively relaxed about this & feel that upon completion of a 3rd negative test Haaland (who has apparently had 2 already) can get back to business. They feel German rules on this supersede those of Norway.
Fans tend to back their clubs to the hilt on these matters. But if your government releases you from quarantine & attaches conditions, isn’t it on you as a national of that country to abide by those conditions, as a national of that country? In a pandemic? At least morally?
Not pretending to have all the answers here. This one is very complicated.
