England national team head coach Gareth Southgate said football players need to be vaccinated against coronavirus in the near future.

In the UK, healthcare and social workers were some of the first to receive the vaccine, but they were mostly offered by age or people with existing medical conditions, not by profession..

" I am in no way suggesting that footballers get ahead of key workers and teachers who need to be ahead in getting the vaccine.. But we're getting closer to the point where football needs to save money, buy and manage vaccines. "

" That is why they need vaccinations, "

We will remind, earlier Gareth Southgate announced the application of the England national team for the qualification matches of the World Cup 2022.
