"We must get back to playing for two reasons: the first is a sporting one, the second financial" is how Karl Heinz Rummenigge started his interview with Corriere della Sport, Bayern Munich's leader explained why they are so eager to get back to the pitch in the Bundesliga:"We are inside a very scary global crisis, everything is temporary, we still don't know if we will start again on May 9th, but it's necessary to start again, we are just waiting for the green light from the government"
Rummenigge explained what many clubs are faced with:"At this time what makes a difference is liquidity with cash, we are in good shape, but many clubs, even some of the important ones, are in grave difficulty. Too many clubs accumulated debts with banks. We have a philosophy we never turned our backs on: with trabsfers we always paid cash without accepting loans"
