The German Bundesliga Will Start Again On May 16th 2020

The football teams participating in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2, respectively Serie A and B of German football have decided this afternoon that the two leagues will start again on May 16 after the suspension of about two months due to the coronavirus. In recent days they had received authorization from the German government to resume playing from the second half of May. In the team plans, both leagues are expected to play the last games of the season between 27 and 28 June.

According to the rumors collected in recent days by German newspapers, the season will have to resume with matches played without the public and in the presence of no more than three hundred people accredited in each stadium. Each player must also undergo weekly tests.

The Italian Serie A is in a kind of limbo: several teams are pressuring the government to end the season, but Sports Minister Vincenzo Spadafora has said several times that it is still too early to make a decision (Italy has been affected much harder than Germany by the coronavirus). In France, Belgium and the Netherlands the 2019/20 season of the main professional championship was declared ended early.
