Bundesliga suspension: How it could impact Borussia Dortmund
Marco Reus to return from injury
Let’s start off with a positive, as the remainder of the impacts are likely going to be negative. The Bundesliga has been suspended until April 2nd, which lines up exactly with Marco Reus’ timeline for recovery. Dortmund were supposed to be without their star man for another 3-4 games before the Coronavirus shut the league down. With the league now taking a leave of absence for the time being it allows the Dortmund Captain to get healthy without missing any more games.
If/when the Bundesliga picks back up, it’s a massive boost for Dortmund to come back likely fully healthy with their biggest weapon back in the lineup. Those four games Reus would have missed could easily have taken Dortmund out of the title race if they weren’t able to keep pace with Bayern.
