The idea sounds interesting but you may be taking it too far. As a German I am put off by the distinction between "High German" and "Central German" mentioned in the description. If two players both are from Germany, it would be absolutely ridiculous to assume they wouldn't be able to understand each other. MAYBE if one of them is from Bavaria that could happen, but almost everyone here who has a strong regional dialect nevertheless also learns to speak without it.

I'm all for making language matter more in the game, introducing more languages etc. but the description of German here and the example R Charlston mentioned above both sound like you may be creating additional language barriers - just for the sake of including dialects in the game - that would hardly matter in real life.

Why is the Bundesliga called "German Bundesliga" in the game? The real name is just "Bundesliga". The word "German" looks out of place especially if you consider that all the other names are given in the respective country's native language (like "Ligue 1" or "Prem'er Liga" etc.).
