Sad certainty for Marco Reus: The BVB captain suffered another setback in the current international phase.
The 33-year-old from Borussia Dortmund suffered a torn muscle in his right thigh while preparing for the Nations League games against Hungary in Budapest on Saturday and against Italy in Mönchengladbach on Tuesday.
This was announced by the German Football Association on Wednesday evening.
Reus only traveled to the DFB quarter in Herzogenaurach on Saturday because of an infection. As a result, the veteran missed the games in Bologna against European champions Italy and in Munich against England (each 1-1).
The DFB did not provide any information about the downtime, the offensive player would “first stay with the team for further treatment,” it said.
Since his debut in October 2011, Reus has only played 48 out of a possible 138 international matches (15 goals).
