October 29, 2021 – Borussia Dortmund will have to face Ajax next Wednesday in the Champions League without Emre Can. A muscle injury will keep the German midfielder sidelined for the coming weeks.
The loss of Can is bad news for Dortmund. The midfielder has already missed a lot of games this season due to another injury. As is known, Marco Rose will not be able to rely on Erling Haaland next week, who is struggling with a thigh injury.
The Dortmund coach had good news to report about Donyell Malen and Youssoufa Moukoko on Friday towards the match against FC Köln. The attackers seem fit enough to be able to play next weekend. Malen was missing in the cup match with FC Ingolstadt 04 midweek due to a stomach-intestinal infection.
Dortmund wants to take revenge in front of its own audience next week for the 4-0 defeat in the Johan Cruijff ArenA. The German superpower was played from pillar to post in the Dutch capital and was lucky that it was not sent home with an even greater defeat.
