Nico Schlotterbeck has been painfully missing at BVB for months. But the time without him could be over at the weekend.
After more than five months of break, Nico Schlotterbeck could celebrate his comeback on Sunday. Borussia Dortmund coach Niko Kovač promised the central defender for the game against 1. FC Union Berlin (7.30 p.m. in the T-Online live ticker) in the prospect. “He trained fully today and already took part in the playing training session after the Champions League game in Turin. If he feels good, he will surely become an alternative for the squad again,” said Kovač.
The national player suffered a meniscal tear in spring. The 25-year-old played his last Bundesliga game on March 30th.
There is also progress for newcomers Fabio Silva. The 23 -year -old attacker, who is committed by the Wolverhampton Wanderers, recently laboratories on an adductor injury. Kovač said: “He was now partially integrated and was there for the first time with the team.” A debut in the BVB jersey is expected in early October. With seven points from three games, BVB started the new season properly.
