BERLIN (AP) — With soccer teams in Germany resuming training in small groups this week, there is optimism among some that the Bundesliga will be able to resume in May.
Such hopes appear slim, however, with the coronavirus outbreak still not under control.
“It is clear that wherever people come into close contact with each other, at major events such as soccer games, or in clubs, it will take a long time before normality returns,” Health Minister Jens Spahn said in an interview with the daily Handelsblatt on Thursday.
The country’s top two divisions have been suspended through April.
