The International Football Association Board (IFAB) had recently approved the proposal, before the DFL discussed it with the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 clubs. From now on, every club will be able to make five changes instead of three during a match.

The general meeting also decided that the 2019/20 season must be fully completed (including the relegation play-off), and the season can be extended past 30th June into July if required.
