“On the Germany map, this closesthe circle for us. Munich is a city with a great football tradition and many enthusiastic fans. We are very pleased to be able to offer them a team in the European League of Football. This completes the expansion with German franchises for the time being.

While the league may not look to expand further in Germany, expansion further into Europe should still be expected in the coming years.
