Amiri in self-isolation as a precaution

Nadiem Amiri will be unavailable for Bayer 04's Europa League Round of 16 second leg match against Rangers on Thursday (18.55 CET/live on DAZN). The midfielder had a brief contact with a positive case last Saturday. This was away from the club.

The Werkself immediately separated the Germany international from the rest of the group as a precaution although his declaration of this coronavirus contact after official testing did not lead to a quarantine order. Amiri will initially be in self-isolation at home for one week.

"This process shows our hygiene measures are effective and that the players are well aware of the significance of the coronavirus issue," declared Rudi Völler, Bayer 04 sporting director. “Nadiem's conduct is exemplary and important. Due to the current increase in infection rates in Germany, this is an example of a serious and responsible way of dealing with a pandemic."
