Germany's football governing body, the DFB, has voted to hand over control of the Women's Bundesliga to the newly formed Ligaverband FBL. Delegates at an extraordinary DFB Bundestag backed the move without a single dissenting voice.
The FBL, founded in December 2025, will assume full operational responsibility for the top-flight women's league from 1 July 2027. Until that date, the Deutscher Fußball-Bund retains its oversight role, as Soccerdonna reports.
Both organisations have signed a lease agreement and a foundational contract setting out the legal, organisational, and financial terms of their relationship going forward.
Under the restructured arrangement, the FBL president - currently Katharina Kiel of Eintracht Frankfurt - will sit as a vice president within the DFB presidium, ensuring the women's league retains direct influence at the highest level of German football governance.
