Bundesliga set for May restart
Berlin plans to allow Germany's Bundesliga to restart behind closed doors in May after weeks of shutdown imposed to control the spread of the coronavirus, according to a draft government agreement seen by AFP Wednesday.
Politicians believe restarting the first and second divisions to "limit economic damage" for the 36 clubs is "acceptable", .
Chancellor Angela Merkel and state premiers will set a date for the games to begin in a telephone conference later Wednesday, with German media reporting May 21 was a possible candidate.
"Restarting match activity must be preceded by a two-week quarantine, where appropriate in the form of a training camp" for players, the document read.
