FC Bayern Munich and Union Berlin's rescheduled duel might not occur until 2024, hinting at a delay in their clash. According to updates from the weekend, this seems to be the case.
Conversations between the clubs and the German Football League (DFL) continue. Union Berlin's spokesperson, Christian Arbeit, made this revelation on Radioeins via rbb, implying a potential 2024 date.
Although both teams will have some free time in the upcoming week given they're not in the DFB Cup, Bundesliga matches can't take place on cup match days. Additionally, Bayern's management announced an open training session for fans on Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. at their club grounds.
Taylor and Wednesday are booked for their Champions League final group games. The following week, however, a midweek Bundesliga matchday is already scheduled before the short winter break.
Expect an early-week decision
The DFL stated that a new date would be announced soon. A decision is imminent by the week's start. A January match is likely due to the English week not appearing at the beginning of the year. Post-Christmas, the season will resume on January 12th with Bayern's home game against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim.
Despite weather chaos in southern Germany, the match between league's Berlin subpar team and Munich's record champions was canceled. Safety risks, caused by extreme snowfall and traffic issues, necessitated the cancellation, as Munich rejected announced.
