Rangnik as Klopp: I would seriously consider bringing in an unvaccinated player

"If you bring in a player who hasn't been vaccinated, you have to be aware that you can easily lose him for 10 days. And not once, but several times", Rangnik alluded to the fact that players who have not been vaccinated must be quarantined in case of contact with an infected person.

Many matches in England have been postponed due to the coronavirus, and Manchester United is among the teams that did not have enough players to play.

The "Red Devils" completed their squad a few days ago, so they will play tonight (21pm) against Newcastle at "St. James' Park", and Ralf Rangnik admits that he would seriously consider whether to bring an unvaccinated player.

Jürgen Klopp was the first to announce such a position, and his compatriot thinks similarly.

"I would seriously consider that. I totally understand Jurgen, because you don't want to bring in a player and then not be able to use him. This is a problem that every club must seriously consider. If you bring in an unvaccinated player, you need to be aware that you can easily lose him for 10 days. And not once, but several times", Rangnik alluded to the fact that players who have not been vaccinated must be quarantined in case of contact with an infected person.

As one of the examples, he mentioned Joshua Kimmich, who has not played for Bayern since the beginning of November. First, because of contact with an infected person, and then because he got corona himself.

"You have the example of Kimiho, who was very hesitant at first, but I think in the meantime he realized that she would be good to be vaccinated. He contracted covid and still has small problems with his lungs. I hope that in the new year he will be fully ready and that he will play for Bayern", stressed Rangnik.
