DORTMUND (dpa-AFX) – Borussia Dortmund’s (BVB (Borussia Dortmund)) captain Emre Can will be out for several months and will therefore also miss the World Cup. The 32-year-old tore a cruciate ligament in his left knee in the top Bundesliga game against FC Bayern, BVB announced the day after the 2-3 defeat. “Emre’s injury is extremely bitter. Not just for him, but for all of us,” Dortmund’s sports director Sebastian Kehl was quoted as saying.
Coach Niko Kovac reported shortly after the game that the team doctor had “not had a good feeling” when examining the midfielder and was already afraid of a long absence. This would be “a really hard blow for us again,” said Kovac.
Can initially wanted to continue playing
The Dortmund captain’s contract expires at the end of the season. Can injured his left knee towards the end of the first half. The national player initially did not want to be substituted and came back onto the field.
“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 next few months so that he can get completely healthy again,” assured sports director Kehl./jso/DP/he
