After the Champions League and the Europa League were suspended for a long time due to the coronavirus pandemic, it has been clear since Wednesday how to proceed. Both competitions will be rescheduled until August 23. That could mean a late start into the new Bundesliga season for the German participants.

The Europa League will be concluded in the same format from August 10th to 21st in Duisburg, Düsseldorf, Gelsenkirchen and Cologne. In both competitions, round of 16 matches were still outstanding in August – including in the premier class of FC Bayern against FC Chelsea (first leg: 3: 0). RB Leipzig is already in the quarterfinals. VfL Wolfsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt are still missing second leg victories in the quarter-finals in the Europa League, Bayer Leverkusen must claim the 3-1 win against the Glasgow Rangers.

Should FC Bayern – or RB Leipzig – reach the final of the Champions League, as Thomas Müller stated on Thursday as the goal towards the employees of the record champions, then the first matchday of the new Bundesliga season will take place without the Munich team. At least that is what she reports image. The new season is scheduled to start on September 11th, but if FC Bayern were to attend the final, they would still be in the middle of preparing for the season. The same naturally also applies to the other German clubs.

As the image reports that there have been discussions between the European Cup participants and the DFL in which a solution has emerged. After the clubs have left the international competition, all players should have a break of two weeks and one day. After that, the clubs should have two weeks to prepare for the new season. Specifically means: If one of the German clubs plays in the final of the European or Champions League, the first day of the new Bundesliga season will take place without this club. This game would then have to be made up during the season.
