This could support clubs in the two main divisions, which are suffering from massive economic problems due to the breakdown of the coronavirus, league board member Christian Ebenbauer confirmed to APA on Tuesday. This could be a million digits.

“We are considering whether it makes sense to ask for a loan like the Bundesliga and thus help the clubs,” said Ebenbauer. The question of the criteria under which the money would be distributed is a topic on Wednesday at the Bundesliga club conference and possibly on Thursday at the Extraordinary General Meeting. “The rules would have to be set precisely. There is also a refund obligation,” said Ebenbauer.
