Swiss captain Granit Xhaka has withdrawn from upcoming international fixtures following the opening of a criminal investigation by the Luzern Public Prosecutor’s Office for purchasing a falsified coronavirus vaccination certificate. The 33-year-old midfielder, who currently plays for Sunderland, admitted to buying the document during the pandemic due to deep mistrust and fear regarding vaccines. He stated that he regrets the decision, accepts responsibility, and is fully cooperating with authorities. Switzerland, which reached the World Cup quarter-finals under his leadership, is scheduled to play in Nations League Division B against North Macedonia, Scotland, and Slovenia.
