Out against Atletico Malen (thigh) will not be an option against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, as he was left off the traveling team.

Impact Malen will continue on the sidelines for a fourth match, now missing his third straight contest due to a thigh issue. Karim Adeyemi and Jadon Sancho will most likely continue on the flanks of the attack with Malen out, as they have served in those roles since his first absence. He will hope to be back on the field to face Gladbach on Saturday, although there has been no recent update on his status, with an exact timeline for his return being unknown.

Remains out Saturday Malen (thigh) is not in the squad to face Stuttgart on Saturday.

Impact Malen misses his second straight match as he continues to recover from a thigh injury. Karim Adeyemi remains in the starting XI in Malen's absence.

APRIL 6 • ROTOWIRE

In question for Saturday Malen (thigh) is questionable for Saturday's match against Stuttgart, as manager Edin Terzic stated, "Donny Malen will be tight until Saturday."

Impact Malen looks to be set for a late fitness test ahead of Saturday's contest, as he appears to still be affected by some of the symptoms of his injury, with his true status not being known until game time. With that being said, the forward will most likely reside on the bench even if he is selected for the team sheet Saturday, as the club will not want to risk aggravating the issue with his fitness being monitored this close to the match, with Karim Adeyemi most likely taking the starting spot again on the left flank of the attack.

Ruled out for Der Klassiker Malen won't play against Bayern Munich on Saturday due to a thigh injury, the club announced Friday.

Impact Malen picked up the injury while on international duty with the Netherlands, and he couldn't recover in time for this pivotal match against Bayern Munich. The earliest he might return will be for the April 6 clash against Stuttgart, though that will depend on his recovery process. Karim Adeyemi could be an option to start over Malen in the front three alongside Jadon Sancho and Niclas Fullkrug.

Assists on lone chance Malen assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 victory versus Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Malen got the start on the right wing, and while he couldn't keep his goalscoring form going he still contributed with an assist during the win. With Karim Adeyemi fit once more and Jadon Sancho in the first team there's plenty of options on the wing for rotation during what will be a busy Bundesliga run in. Still if Malen can keep this form going he will guarantee he stays in the starting XI.

Impact Malen scored four goals in three matches before the suspension and should be one of the first names on the team sheet for Saturday's trip. The forward is has stepped into his own during his third season with Dortmund, sitting on 10 goals with three months still to go in the Bundesliga.

Impact Malen has earned his last four yellow cards over his last four Bundesliga appearances, and he will miss the clash against Union Berlin as a result. His absence should represent another issue for head coach Edin Terzic, as Malen had been a regular name in the XI in recent weeks. Jadon Sancho could get another chance in the starting lineup with Malen out, though the Dutchman will be eligible to return against Werder Bremen on March 9.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Strikes against PSV Malen scored a goal while taking five shots (four on goal) and crossing once accurately during Tuesday's 1-1 draw against PSV.

Impact Malen has been in good form recently with two braces across his last four appearances, giving him an average of a goal per game during the four-matchup span. He has nine goals across the 2023-24 Bundesliga and is only one away from reaching double digits in the category for the first time.

Nets brace versus Koln Malen scored two goals off two shots and created one chance during Saturday's 4-0 win over Koln.

Impact Malen was key for his side to win all three points here, opening the scoring in the 12th minute and then making it 3-0 just after the hour mark. That's now seven goals over 17 league appearances for the forward this season and he'll try to keep adding to his account during jan. 28 home clash against Bochum.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Dangerous in attack Malen scored one goal to go with seven shots (four on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus FC Augsburg.

Impact Malen tied his season highs for shots and shots on target in this contest in addition to netting his fifth Bundesliga goal in 14 appearances (10 starts). He will look to build on this performance against Mainz in midweek.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores once on three shots Malen scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and one corner in Saturday's 4-2 win versus Monchengladbach.

The goal marked his first since September 16, but it also marked his fourth in 12 appearances this season. Malen is up to a total of 28 shots, including 14 shots on goal for the year.

Three shots in loss Malen generated three shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 4-0 defeat versus Bayern Munich.

Impact Malen took three shots during Saturday's loss and failed to do much else. The striker was generally left struggling for end product and was well contained. The good news here is that every match going forward should be significantly easier than this one against the Munich juggernaut.

NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Solid volume in win Malen had seven shots (three on goal) and three crosses (one accurate) in Wednesday's 1-0 win versus Newcastle United.

Impact Malen didn't get on the scoresheet but produced seven shots and proved to be a consistent threat on the wing. Malen is still looking for his first Champions League goal of 2023/24 though his 12 shots in the competition indicate it should be a matter of when, not if, he scores. Malen has also scored three times in eight Bundesliga appearances.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Draws three fouls in Milan game Malen registered three shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 0-0 draw versus AC Milan.

Impact Malen was rather active and co-paced his team in attempts along with Emre Can but not overly influential overall. He has scored once and tallied nine shots (three on target), four chances created, and eight crosses in the last five games. Borussia Dortmund will host Union Berlin Saturday.

OCTOBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Five crosses off wing Malen registered one shot (one on goal) and five crosses (zero accurate) in Friday's 3-1 win versus Hoffenheim.

Impact Malen swapped to the left wing for Friday's win and peppered the box with a season-high five crosses. He failed to create a chance but the volume is still encouraging for the winger. Malen finished 2022/23 in red-hot form and starter 2023/24 with three goals in four matches but has now been shutout for three in a row. Still with the Dortmund attack finding form Malen should have the chances to bounce back.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores again Malen scored with his only shot and created two chances in Saturday's 4-2 win against Freiburg.

Impact Malen headed in his third in four games and has given himself a great chance of bettering his tally of nine from last season. The attacker is his team's top scorer and has attempted 12 shots, significantly more than any other Dortmund player. He is also on corner duties, but is still awaiting his first assist. Dortmund will be hoping he can keep his hot streak going against Wolfsburg on Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores equalizer Malen scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Bochum.

Impact Malen saved Dortmund from dropping all three points when he scored to equalize the match in the the 56th minute. He got a little lucky with his goal as it bounced straight through Manuel Riemann's hands but nonetheless, it gave the Dutch striker his second goal in as many matches. He will look to smash last season's tally of nine goals, having two already with 32 matches left in Bundesliga play. The 24-year-old has started this season on a hot streak so far and looks to be the early candidate to lead the striker department for Dortmund, but will have to keep his form up with the likes of Sebastien Haller, Karim Adeyemi and Youssoufa Moukoko breathing down his neck for that spot.
