Zaporozhye Motor was forced to move to the German Championship due to the war in Ukraine.
Motor plans next season to play in the German championship. Image reports. The 11-time champion of Ukraine, after the start of Russia’s invasion and the impossibility of holding Ukraine’s championship, began looking for options to play in the 2021/22 season.
Among the options considered are the championships of Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia and Hungary. Ultimately, however, the choice fell on the Bundesliga, but not the first, but the second. All because the elite have no free space and dates for additional battles.
