Which Americans can you watch in the Bundesliga?

The Bundesliga is set to become the first of the top 10 soccer leagues to resume play after the coronavirus pandemic forced almost all sports into hiatus. Germany’s top flight, as well as the 2. Bundesliga, are scheduled to resume play on May 16th with Matchday 26, with every team with 9 matches remaining on their schedule except Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt, who each have 10 matches left.

Because the leagues are coming back at a time where most major sports are still sidelined, there is renewed interest in the league among diehard soccer fans, and new fans are beginning to research the league to find a team to latch onto for the next couple of months.

As many diehard fans know, the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga have several American players that call it home, including quite a few of the young core of the United States Men’s National Team. Whether you’re looking for a team to call your own or you’re just excited to see live soccer once again, checking out the matches involving teams with American players is always a great idea.
