Borussia Dortmund Injury Update: Reyna, Duranville, Adeyemi
Friday matches following an international break carry a unique excitement. After a lengthy lull, the anticipation for a game that arrives a day earlier than usual ramps up the hype. As a result, the clash between FC St. Pauli and Borussia Dortmund is expected to draw significant attention. Dortmund, however, is dealing with four injury and fitness issues: Filippo Mane (unspecified muscular injury), Karim Adeyemi (torn muscle fiber), Julien Duranville (hamstring), and Giovanni Reyna (groin strain).
