The Saxon Interior Minister Armin Schuster welcomes the fact that there is now "legal clarity for all sides" following the Federal Constitutional Court's ruling on soccer clubs sharing the costs of police operations. However, the CDU politician left open what consequences Saxony will draw from the ruling. "How we in Saxony deal with the ruling and what conclusions we draw from it is something I will discuss first and foremost with the Saxon Football Association," said Schuster.
He sees the Karlsruhe ruling "as an incentive for the clubs and associations to work together with the police to further intensify the formats that have already been initiated, such as stadium alliances or the top-level talks with the DFB/DFL," said the Minister of the Interior.
