Before the start of the Euro 2024 home championship at the German national team base, a conflict occurred between two German players: defender Antonio Rudiger and forward Niklas Fullkrug.
According to Bild, Rudiger and Füllkrug were on different teams during a training session. The defender was constantly pushing and grabbing Fullkrug, and at one point threw the striker on the ground, leading to a small altercation. Assistant coach Sandro Wagner had to step in to calm the players down.
After the incident, Antonio Rudiger did not return to the team, choosing to go on a run with the fitness coach to cool off.
The Euro 2024 championship will take place in Germany from June 14 to July 14.
