Germany’s control is preventive: the DFL licenses clubs season by season against economic criteria — liquidity proof, going-concern status, obligations current — and can impose conditions before problems become crises. It is licensing rather than a single public spending cap, so Zelador scores German clubs against indicative benchmarks, clearly labeled, while tracking the liquidity and obligation metrics the licensing process actually examines.
