Meanwhile, the Premier League hosts have considered playing a '39th game' outside England or Wales.
However, a similar deal is totally out of the question for the German Bundesliga, Deutsche Fußball Liga (DFL) boss Christian Seifert has underlined.
"We will never play a game in an official competition outside Germany. That would be disrespectful to the fans," Seifert said at the international football congress 'Frankfurt Football Summit' and added:
"That's a line we will not cross."
According to numbers from the DFL, there were 43.879 spectators per Bundesliga match on average in the 2017/18 season.
