The fix I've mentioned will also work if applied before starting a new game

This year, SI got the official German licence so the fix to change the names over in English wasn't necessary.

If you want to get the club name changes in your save game, the German club name changes are still in the lnc file (instead of the editor data file) and so you can use the workaround in the first post to change them yourself

The files need to be in place before the save-game is started. Is this the case?

I suspect it's due to one of the extra files you've mentioned. Try loading a new game without them and, if I'm right, then the competition name changes will be correct.
