World Cup delay for Switzerland’s Embolo while US reviews his travel document
ZURICH: (Jun 2) Switzerland forward Breel Embolo was delayed flying to the United States for the World Cup on Tuesday because his travel documents were under review.
“Unfortunately, Breel Embolo is currently unable to travel to the United States with the team,” the Swiss soccer federation said, saying his ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation) was no longer approved.
The Swiss were due to fly from Zurich around lunchtime local time on Tuesday to Los Angeles before going to a World Cup training camp in San Diego.
