Coach Christian Streich sees the Bundesliga club SC Freiburg well positioned despite the cuts in the wake of the corona pandemic. “We are a very seriously run club – and have been for decades. We don’t take any risks. The pandemic hurts everyone, including us. If it has to be, then we have to make sure that we train the lads so well that the bigger clubs sign one or the other player. Then we live from it, we’ve always done it,” Streich said before the game at 1. FC Köln on the TV channel “Sky”. He has no qualms about that. “We are in such a good position. One or the other club must have more worries,” added Streich.
During the week, UEFA announced as part of its benchmarking report that the clubs had earned €7 billion less than in the previous period as a result of the pandemic. The largest losses resulted from the lower or missing ticket income during the pandemic in the amount of 4.4 billion euros. As a result, DFL boss Donata Hopfen and BVB sports director Michael Zorc also warned of dramatic consequences for the Bundesliga.
