Already yesterday, after the game against Bayern (2:3), Niko Kovač had feared it, and now it is certain. As BVB has just announced, captain Emre Can has suffered a cruciate ligament tear in his left knee. 

This means the season is over for the Dortmund player.

"Emre's injury is extremely bitter. Not just for him, but for all of us. He is our captain, always puts himself at the service of the team, and is an important part of our club. Emre will receive every support from us in the coming months so that he can make a full recovery," Sebastian Kehl is quoted as saying in the press release. 

Can will now be out for several months.
