The leadership of the German "Dusseldorf" denied information about the club joining the KHL. The media reported that its main sponsor “refused” the club, and investors from Russia agreed to provide all possible assistance in the amount of 30 million euros, but subject to the team entered into the KHL.
Düsseldorf thanks the Russian side for the prestigious proposal and invitation to the KHL, - quotes the managing director of Duceldorf Elmar Shmellenkamp's official website of the club. - In the person of Russians, we saw serious and competent business partners. Their proposal speaks of the special attractiveness of our club and the city. Nevertheless, we are sure that the team will be able to successfully develop without the help of the KHL, within the framework of the German league. Therefore, we are forced to reject the proposal. Despite our refusal, we are interested in the further development of relations with Russian partners. "
At the moment, in the German Championship, Dusseldorf takes seventh place after 41 matches.
