German club Hertha Berlin has suspended forward SALOMON KALOU after filming himself flouting social distancing rules on his return to training.

The Ivorian also filmed himself interrupting a team-mate's test while streaming it live on Facebook - an act that was branded absolutely unacceptable by the German league.

It comes just days after KALOU admitted that it would be awkward returning to playing top-level football because the game is a contact sport.
