👀 German star reveals: why he trains in long sleeves at 35°C

German striker Deniz Undav, currently training with VfB Stuttgart in the high 35-degree heat at their camp in Grassau on Lake Chiemsee, chose to don a long-sleeved shirt rather than the customary short-sleeved jersey or tank top. This decision was not made for style reasons but was driven by a personal need. Undav revealed that he developed an allergy due to excessive sun exposure during a vacation.

The allergy, not affecting his face, impacted his arms. Undav explained his choice by stating that wearing the long-sleeved shirt would prevent the exacerbation of his condition. He emphasized that this decision would save him from a potential trip to the doctor, given the severity of his allergy. The long-sleeved shirt thus serves as a protective measure against further sun-induced damage. This story, originally written in German, has been translated into English for readers.
