The news will come as a big relief for Borussia Dortmund, who will already be without a number of key players for this weekend’s game against Hertha Berlin.
In addition to the already sidelined Manuel Akanji, Gio Reyna and Youssoufa Moukoko, Borussia Dortmund will also have to make do without Jude Bellingham on Saturday. The England international picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in the Bundesliga on Wednesday, and will have to serve a one-match suspension as a result. Marius Wolf is also a doubt for Saturday’s game after he missed the Greuther Fürth game due to a muscle injury.
But Marco Rose did say on Wednesday that Raphael Guerreiro has started training individually, and there is hope that he could be in the squad for the trip to Berlin. The Portuguese international has missed the last two games due to a muscle injury.
