The German Football League will vote on the controversial investor deal on Wednesday. The DFL will give away part of the proceeds for 20 years – and collect two billion euros for it.
The money will be used to drive digitization of the league and promotion of young talent. But critics of the investor deal fear that it will not stop at repair work and that the league could suffer permanent roof damage if it goes ahead with the deal, which was pushed forward by the DFL under the leadership of Axel Hellmann.
