The Bavarian Football Association has approved all 20 clubs for the upcoming regional league season - including Türkgücü Munich.

Update from July 5, 3:27 p.m .:

After the regional league approval for Türkgücü Munich, the operating company of the Olympic Stadium, Olympiapark Munich GmbH, has now spoken out.

Due to the league membership, there will be no lower lease for the stadium.

"The conditions are in line with the market," said a spokesman at the request of football suburb.

Türkgücü Munich: Explosive history with the Olympic Stadium - the operating company builds a contract clause

"The stadium has its size and its costs," the spokesman continued.

The realization of the agreement with Türkgücü took place last week, he confirms and adds: "We had clear demands." The relationship between the operating company and Türkgücü Munich has a controversial past.

"There are certain safeguards built into the contract."

The Perlachers were already playing in the Olympic Stadium when they were in the third division, but the football company had to file for bankruptcy in March.

All missing home games were canceled - income that the operator company lacked.

"There are certain safeguards built into the contract," the spokesman explains.

This is to ensure that the money is guaranteed to flow.

According to the contract, up to ten home games will take place in the Olympic Stadium from mid-October to April.

Türkgücü Munich: The lease for the Olympic Stadium alone costs at least 175,000 euros

According to information from Münchner Merkur and Fußball Vorort/FuPa Oberbayern, the expenses for the Olympic Stadium in the 3rd division were 25,000 euros per game.

Since the Grünwalder Stadium can only be occupied for 12 home games, at least seven games must take place in the Olympic Stadium.

Based on this value, the costs for the games in the Olympic Stadium alone are at least 175,000 euros.

The relegated team will face high expenses in the new season.

Once again, the club is dependent on willing sponsors to be able to secure its game operations.

However, unlike the dissolved football company, there seems to be more security.

Otherwise, Olympiapark München GmbH would hardly have agreed to the deal.

First report from July 5, 2:30 p.m.:

Munich – The report was eagerly awaited, now it is clear: All 20 athletically qualified clubs will receive approval for the upcoming regional league season.

This was announced by the Bavarian Football Association (BFV) in a press release.

"The examination by the commission chaired by Treasurer Jürgen Faltbacher has led to positive results," it says.

Türkgücü Munich receives regional league admission only under conditions - stadium search comes to an end late

Previously, some clubs had only received admission under certain conditions, including Türkgücü Munich.

The Perlachers have only been accepted for the Grünwalder stadium for twelve of their 19 home games.

An alternative location was therefore necessary for all other games.

After a long back and forth, including cancellations from Fürstenfeldbruck and Lohhof, there was a surprising turn of events on Tuesday.

Türkgücü Munich will also play in the Munich Olympic Stadium in the coming season.
