“We have said we won’t move the international matches to somewhere else, to Budapest or something like that, because that doesn’t make much sense to us,” Loew told broadcasters RTL/ntv on Tuesday.

Loew was referring to recent relocated Champions League matches, with Leipzig and Liverpool playing both games of their last 16 tie in Budapest owing to German restrictions for arrivals from Britain.

“When you’ve seen that there was an (virus) incidence of 50 in the Champions League in Leipzig, maybe 100 in Liverpool and then you go to another country, to Budapest, where it was 400, that lacks any logic,” Loew said.

Germany host Iceland on March 25 and North Macedonia on March 31 in World Cup qualifying, with an away match in Romania in-between on March 28. Loew insisted that “we will definitely play (the home games) in Germany.”

However, the government order that everyone arriving from the UK must quarantine for a fortnight should mean that Loew must do without his five England-based players, the Chelsea trio of Timo Werner, Kai Havertz, Antonio Ruediger, Arsenal’s Bernd Leno and Ilkay Guendogan of Manchester City.

Loew also said he would not bring them along to the match in Romania where sich quarantine rules don’t apply.

“We are in a bubble, and when players join us there is always danger. That is not the solution we want,” Loew said.
