Vacation and preparation: This is how Daniel Farke plans during the World Cup

The Winter World Cup in Qatar will be a whole new challenge for all European clubs. Gladbach head coach Daniel Farke wants to send the players who are not traveling to the tournament on vacation.

As of now, only a manageable number of Gladbachers are going to Qatar for the World Cup. The foals who do not travel to the tournament can look forward to an extra holiday, as trainer Daniel Farke has now revealed.

"We are in the planning stage. We will not train for the sake of training," Farke told the Rheinische Post. "So we'll probably send the boys on vacation relatively soon after the last competitive game." Farke also explained how things will go from there. The Gladbach coach wants to "start training again in early or mid-December in order to have proper preparation like in summer." It remains to be seen how the clubs will deal with the unusual break and whether teams with few World Cup drivers will have an advantage. Farke, meanwhile, doesn't necessarily think hosting the World Cup in winter is the best decision: "I grew up with the World Cup every four years in summer and I like it too. Maybe there are advantages in winter, but I still don't see them." It is clear that the disadvantages for the clubs outweigh the disadvantages. The season could take a massive break from the tournament.
