The KNVB wants to have a positive test of a professional footballer analyzed again as soon as possible. The association communicates this through a letter to all football clubs.
That reports the AD. The KNVB hopes in this way to reduce the number of ‘false positive’ players. “We believe that everything should be done to keep the number of incorrect results as low as possible”, the association writes. The consequence of this policy is that it takes longer before the results are known. With the opening of a new lab of Eurofins, the company with which the KNVB has been working since the corona outbreak, time must be reduced.
Lately, more and more football players have been getting a positive result, so that several matches in the Eredivisie and Kitchen Champion Division have been postponed.
