Dortmund's Ryerson Likely to Miss Wolfsburg Trip
Dortmund's Ryerson Expected to Miss Wolfsburg Trip Due to Injury
Borussia Dortmund defender Julian Ryerson is likely to miss Saturday's Bundesliga match against VfL Wolfsburg due to an ankle injury.
Ryerson Suffered Ankle Injury in Training
Ryerson, who has been a regular starter for Dortmund this season, suffered an ankle injury in training on Thursday. The Norwegian international was forced to leave the session early and underwent a scan which revealed the extent of the injury.
Recovery Timetable Unclear
The club has not yet provided a timetable for Ryerson's return, but he is expected to miss at least the Wolfsburg match. Dortmund will also be without Thorgan Hazard and Mateu Morey, who are both out with long-term injuries.
Dortmund Face Wolfsburg in Crucial Match
Dortmund will be hoping to bounce back from their disappointing 2-0 defeat to Union Berlin last weekend when they face Wolfsburg on Saturday. The match is a crucial one for Dortmund, who are currently fourth in the Bundesliga, one point behind Wolfsburg.
Dortmund Will Need to be at Their Best to Beat Wolfsburg
Wolfsburg have been in good form this season and will be a tough test for Dortmund, even without Ryerson. Dortmund will need to be at their best to get a result against Wolfsburg and keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.
