Paderborn – The SC Paderborn wants to start team training again as soon as possible with a view to an early restart in the Bundesliga.
“We wait for the result of the second Corona test, then we may already start training for the team today,” said the new managing director Fabian Wohlgemuth at an online press conference. The club adheres to all requirements of the German Football League and the Health Department. “How other clubs deal with it, I can not judge,” said the successor to Martin Przondziono, who has been in office since May 1.
At the moment, the Paderborners, like all other professional clubs, are still training in small groups due to the contact restrictions in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. League and clubs hope on Wednesday from politics to get the green light for the continuation of the game operation, which has been suspended since mid-March. Then the season could resume on the third or fourth weekend in May.
Wohlgemuth has not yet written off the relegation in the event of a seasonal continuation. «The chances have increased, the general conditions have changed. The club that best adapts and identifies best with it has the best chance of getting the most points, »said the 41-year-old. “We are fully focused on relegation.” The promoted team is currently six points behind relegation place 16.
