💨 Abstract

German soccer clubs Bayer Leverkusen, Wolfsburg, and Leipzig may need to give fans more control. The Federal Cartel Office wants stricter enforcement of the 50-plus-1 rule, which ensures majority voting rights for club members. Recent court rulings suggest permanent exemptions for Leverkusen and Wolfsburg may end. The regulator also wants the German men's soccer league to offer fans voting rights, impacting Leipzig's relationship with Red Bull.
