Switzerland’s World Cup stars are on red alert after being warned of Snakes next to their training camp.
The Swiss have jetted out to San Diego to prepare for their World Cup opener against Qatar on June 13.
The team are already dealing with humid temperatures in the US as they get used to their new surroundings.
But the squad have another alarming problem to deal with after a ‘snake area’ was marked up on the map of their training camp.
The official Switzerland team account posted a picture of their facility with labels of its different sections.
They showed off the goalkeeping area at the back of the pitch, with the gym area covered by a tent.
There was also the dressing area that was pinpointed just behind the gym section.
But the Swiss account left some fans stunned after labelling a huge ‘snake area’ surrounding the training pitch.
The troublesome area was marked up in dark red stripes as the caption read: “Watch out for the snakes.”
According to the San Diego Natural History Museum, there are four species of venomous rattlesnakes in the region.
The most common type of snake in the city is a venomous rattlesnake called Crotalus helleri.
Switzerland aren’t the only nation on the lookout for snakes at their World Cup camp.
Norway have also been asked to be wary of dangerous reptiles after checking into their camp at Grandover Resort & Spa in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Erling Haaland and Co were urged not to “provoke” any of the snakes, which are “very common” in Greensboro.
The city’s website states: “Copperhead snakes are found throughout the eastern and southeastern United States and are very common in Greensboro.
“Do not provoke it, try to pick it up or disturb it in any other way – it is extremely dangerous to do anything other than leave it alone.”
Norway midfielder Kristian Thorstvedt reportedly said he was “not happy to hear this” when told about the snakes.
Switzerland will feel they have a fairly winnable World Cup Group B as they also face Bosnia and Herzegovina and co-hosts Canada.
They face the Bosnians on June 18 before wrapping up their group stage against Canda on June 24.
As for Noway, they’ll play minnows Iraq on June 16 before games against Senegal on June 23 and favourites France on June 26.
