The German Football Association (DFB) has announced that Bundesliga home clubs will be required to cover the costs of additional policing for matches classified as high-risk. This policy shift follows a court ruling that established the accountability of professional football clubs for the expenses associated with increased security measures at their venues.
By mandating that clubs bear these financial burdens, the DFB is aligning its operational policies with the recent legal determination. The move marks a significant change in how security costs are distributed for high-profile fixtures within the German football league system.
