Dortmund Faces Barcelona Without Key Defender Süle
Borussia Dortmund will be without central defender Niklas Süle for their crucial Champions League match against Barcelona due to injury.
Borussia Dortmund's head coach, Nuri Sahin, faces a significant challenge as his team prepares to host Barcelona in the sixth match of the UEFA Champions League group stage. Both teams have accumulated 12 points, making this encounter pivotal for securing advancement to the Round of 16.
Dortmund enters the match following a 1-1 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga, a result that leaves them sixth in the league standings. However, the draw came at a cost, as key defender Niklas Süle sustained an injury in the final minutes. Reports indicate that the German international will miss the upcoming clash against Barcelona. In his absence, Emre Can is expected to fill the defensive void.
On a positive note, forward Karim Adeyemi is set to return to the squad after a two-month hiatus due to a muscle tear, bolstering Dortmund's attacking options.
