Dortmund Boosted as Schlotterbeck Returns for Manchester City Trip

The center back is back from a mild flu after rejoining full training, strengthening a defense on a club-record run of clean sheets.

Overview

  • Schlotterbeck took part in the final session and will travel to Manchester, with reporting indicating he is likely to start.
  • Niko Kovac previously said Schlotterbeck missed the Augsburg win due to a mild flu and was not fit to play at the time.
  • Niklas Süle trained only individually because of a swollen toe and is described as unlikely to travel.
  • Julian Brandt sat out training for load management but is expected to be on the trip.
  • Dortmund face Manchester City on Wednesday at 21:00 on DAZN, with former BVB striker Erling Haaland in prolific form at 17 goals in 13 matches.
