Semedo left out of training for breaking protocol

Semedo was left out of Barcelona's latest training session. The defender was the subject of a huge controversy by breaking the La Liga health protocol to go to a birthday and this has been the direct consequence. He couldn't join his teammates as a preventative measure.

More details about the celebration he attended have come to the fore. 'Marca' note that there were at least 20 people, which exceeded not only the rules of the football organisation, but also the government's orders. You have to remember that Barcelona is still in phase 2 of the Spanish de-escalation plan.

It was the club themselves, in a tweet from their official account, which informed that their player wasn't training on the pitch. "Training session with available first team players. N. Semedo did not train as per protocol established by La Liga".

It can also be extracted from this post that it was La Liga that ordered the footballer not to be near his teammates. At the moment, Barca have not taken disciplinary measures, but they could do in the next few days. Semedo will have to wait.
