M. Arteta on international break: "At the moment it poses a danger to players" © PA

Next week, the club football season will pause for a while, and the best footballers will leave for national teams. Due to the packed schedule, some national teams will play as many as three matches in a short period of time, and some players run the risk of falling into quarantine traps. This situation does not satisfy London's "Arsenal" coach Mikel Arteta, who is convinced that the national team break can be very dangerous for the players. "Playing so many matches during the national team break would be too much even under normal circumstances, and at this moment it poses a risk to the players. I don't think it's fair, but we can't change anything. The decision has already been made and those matches will be played. I want to protect my players as much as possible and I have great confidence in all the countries' football federations on this issue. We will strive to constantly discuss and monitor the condition of our players," M. Arteta said at a press conference.
