Bundesliga restart in doubt with government gearing up to TIGHTEN lockdown

  /  autty

Bundesliga's planned return has been thrown into turmoil after reports that Germany could toughen up its lockdown protocols.

Clubs in the German top flight have returned to training in the hope that the rest of the season can be finished off - providing Chancellor Angela Merkel gives the green light for action to get back underway.

The league had pencilled in May 9 as a possible date to return to the pitch, but those hopes might have to be shelved amid after reports surfacing that cases had spiked in the country, which could force Chancellor Angela Merkel to tighten lockdown after shops, schools and churches began to open again.
