Türkgücü Munich stops playing! Club is out of the 3rd division
Update from March 24, 11:30 a.m.: Over, over, over! Türkgücü Munich withdraws from playing in the 3rd division. The association officially announced this immediately after the works meeting. The press release in the wording:
“Turkgücü München Fußball GmbH & Co. KGaA has to stop playing in the 3rd division by the end of March 2022. The club management in the presence of the provisional insolvency administrator Dr. Max Liebig informed the team and the employees of the association this Thursday morning in a works meeting.
“It would only have been possible to continue gaming operations by providing new capital from third parties. The expected income from the game operations until the end of the season will not be able to cover the running costs by a long shot,” explains managing director Max Kothny: “Despite intensive efforts in the past few weeks, unfortunately no new investor could be found.”
The high point deduction imposed on Türkgücü Munich by the DFB made the search for an investor even more difficult. “The team has shown in the past few weeks that they have never given up. This also impressed potential sponsors, who were ultimately deterred by the high risk of relegation as a result of the impending point deduction,” Kothny explains the unsuccessful search for a new sponsor.

What would hit the 1. FC Saarbrücken hard. The Saarlanders would fall out of the promotion zone and would suddenly have TSV 1860 Munich breathing down their necks again. The club is therefore keeping an eye on Munich, but of course cannot influence anything, a Saarbrücken spokesman confirms.
Update from March 24, 10:57 am: At the Perlach-Nord district sports facility, things are now getting hot. The works meeting of Türkgücü Munich is underway. In the next hour it will be clear how the club will continue. So far, those responsible have kept a low profile. Observers see the chances that the game in the 3rd division can be maintained low. Do the dead live longer?
