Every Bundesliga team's winter break plans | OneFootball

Even though the period is shorter this year, the Bundesliga still has an unusually long winter break.

That allows German sides the opportunity to both get some rest and also set up proper training plans to get ready for the Rückrunde.

Over half of the top flight are jetting off for overseas training camps over the holidays, mainly in Spain. The rest will remain local, playing friendlies and preparing for Matchday 18.

Here is what all 18 Bundesliga teams are doing for the next few weeks, courtesy of the Bundesliga website.
