It appears that the solidarity that has emerged in German football due to the Coruna virus epidemic, did not last until one round of the Bundesliga competition. Prior to the completion of yesterday's match between Werder Bremen and Bayer Leverkusen in the twenty-sixth round of the league, quarrels resumed.
Bayern Munich chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge strongly rejected the views of the German federation president, Fritz Keeler, and attacked him in a ridiculous manner. He called on the federation to solve its internal problems and pay attention to "cleaning its place" instead of making "unsuccessful" comments on the clubs. The German Confederation had hinted that the issue of the resumption of the Bundesliga, for which some rich clubs headed by Bayern, pressed for its own goals away from what is in the public interest in Germany in light of suffering from the spread of Corona virus, and that this was done without resuming the competitions organized by Union and the lowest levels.
During his interview with Sky, Rummenigge said he was "puzzled," adding: "Maybe the German Confederation should buy a mop and clean the place in front of their door, as appropriate." The attack came in response to Keeler's interview in the "Spiegel" magazine, where he carefully thought, "Where do things go, when the new rich, some of them on the ball in the Bundesliga, brag about their money."
He said: "When we have had crises in German football in recent years, they were found in the German Confederation." He hoped that the union would fulfill its duty in crises. The German Confederation has approval to resume the cup competitions organized by the beginning of next month, but the matches of the third division for men and the first division for women remain suspended. An agreement must be reached between clubs and politicians to begin.
