Umm, I'm pretty sure Germany doesn't have any (legal) basis at all to stop other countries from training whoever they want on the Leopard - the restrictions are against re-export of the tanks.
Likely not but the messaging is only headed in one direction. I also wouldn't be broken up if Polish Leopards mysteriously disappeared from training grounds while the Pole instructors were out grabbing a beer.
Alternative scheme at this point might be buying retired Challenger 1s from Jordan (edit: and/or Oman) and quick rehabbing them in Czechia.
