Borussia has to transfer millions to City
As the UEFA announced, the game would have to be relocated to Budapest due to official requirements to contain the coronavirus, where the first meeting took place.
England in particular is affected by corona mutations, which means that Borussia should have been quarantined for 14 days after their return trip.
When leaving Hungary, this does not apply despite the significantly higher corona numbers.
The threat from the virus is much higher despite the relocation.
In Budapest the seven-day incidence is around 670, in Manchester 91.9 and in Mönchengladbach 46.7.
In addition, Borussia has to transfer a compensation payment of 1.5 million euros to Manchester City for the relocated game.

"We're going there to win a soccer game," Rose said in advance.
Progress would be balm for the Borussian soul, but a correspondingly high victory against the star troupe of Pep Guardiola would currently be a "small miracle".
