Ahead of Dortmund clash: Bitter setback for Timo Werner | OneFootball

It could have been so nice for Timo Werner: After making his Bundesliga comeback last week after 693 days of absence in Wolfsburg, the striker would have liked to follow up against Borussia Dortmund tomorrow afternoon. But that seems unlikely.

In the encounter against Dortmund, the RB striker will be missing. The reason: muscular problems prevent him from playing.

Coach Ole Werner confirmed this at the press conference before the game: “Timo has muscular problems in the groin and will not be traveling. He already had problems on Tuesday and was still on the field. But he has already given feedback that it doesn't make sense to continue training.”

At least there is some good news for all RB fans: After the international break in mid-October, Werner should be ready to play again.

Since Timo Werner had just returned to the Saxons, his absence for the game will probably not be too significant, but it is still bitter for the striker.
