Football Regionalliga West: Düren Secures Third Spot in Relegation
Düren has been officially demoted to the Regional League, making it the third team to face this fate. - Third Team Withdraws from Regional League Competition
Hey there! Let's talk German football and the drama unfolding in the Regionalliga West. The cat's out of the bag – the third relegated team has been identified!
Amidst the insolvency saga and subsequent pullouts from Türkspor Dortmund and KFC Uerdingen, 1. FC Düren has now thrown in the towel. The team has withdrawn its application to participate in the Herren-Regionalliga West next season, thanks to the opening of insolvency proceedings. This confirmation puts 1. FC Düren in the unenviable role of the third relegated team, as announced by the West German Football Association.
Now, you might wonder, what's the story with Düren? They're still kicking, mind you, but they've already fallen into a relegation spot due to nine points being deducted. With two games left on their plate – against Rot-Weiß Oberhausen and Eintracht Hohkeppel – it's a race against time for the hastily reassembled squad.
As for the Regionalliga, it's a wild ride as always! MSV Duisburg currently leads the pack with 28 points, followed closely by FC Gütersloh (27), Sportfreunde Lotte (27), and Rot-Weiß Oberhausen (27). It's a neck-and-neck race to the finish, with plenty of twists and turns in store.
Now, here's where things get interesting – a bit of research reveals that, as of late April 2025, Düren Merzenich (a different club from Düren, Germany) can be found in recent match results, having suffered a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Wuppertaler SV on April 29. But alas, we're here to talk about 1. FC Düren, who are strangely absent from the current Regionalliga West standings.
