The DR Congo national team delegation faces entry requirements for the United States

The US authorities are reported to have demanded a 21-day quarantine for the Leopards.

This is clearly not a good sign for the Democratic Republic of Congo national team’s trip. The Ebola virus affecting the country could disrupt the Congolese players’ journey to the US.

The Congolese squad, which is preparing to play a friendly match against Portugal in Houston, is expected to face health restrictions, according to sources. The Leopards are likely to be placed in quarantine upon their arrival in the United States. This would undoubtedly disrupt the Leopards’ preparations for the World Cup, which kicks off on 11 June.
