Players will have to follow loads of protocols while playing football in such circumstances. The concerned authorities will have to take extra care of players due to the virus. Rekordmeister has decided to keep players in the hotel as they prepare for the resumption of the Bundesliga.
Staying away from family in such a crisis may mentally affect the player. Moreover, the anxiety and uncertainty about virus will also affect players and their performances. Die Roten will have to take the necessary steps to make sure that players are doing well mentally, even if it is not visible all the time.
Moreover, the club will also have to prepare players for the worst-case scenario.

The situation is extraordinary, so measures also need to be extraordinary to keep players mentally and physically fit.
