Out Tuesday Can (strain) will not be available versus Sporting CP on Tuesday.

Impact Can will be out of action for his sixth straight contest due to his muscular injury. The defender has made just one 10-minute substitute appearance for the club this year and likely figures to be a fringe roster player even when fully fit.

Back in training Can participated in Dortmund's final training session ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash against Sporting, according to Ruhr Nachrichten.

Impact Can has missed the last month with a muscle strain, but he may be fit enough to return to the squad and possibly get some minutes.

Won't play Saturday Can (strain) will not be an option versus Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday as manager Marco Rose told reporters, "Also Emre Can will need a few more days to recover."

Impact Can's only appearance this season came off the bench in a 10-minutes substitute outing. As such, the defender's absence shouldn't impact the starting XI, though ti will no doubt stretch the club's depth given the bevy of injuries on the backline, including Mats Hummels (knee) and Thomas Meunier (undisclosed).

Picks up muscular injury Can will miss out against Hoffenheim on Friday after suffering a muscular injury.

Impact Can has logged just 10 minutes off the bench this season but was in line to start versus Hoffenheim. Fortunately for Dortmund, the club will get Thomas Meunier (COVID-19) back in the starting XI. Once healthy, Can may be utilized in a midfield role but is far from a lock to start on a weekly basis.

Starts on bench against Freiburg Can will start the match against Freiburg on the bench on Saturday.

Impact Can will start Saturday's match on the bench. The defender travelled with the squad despite suffering from a calf injury in the recent past.

Travels to Freiburg Can (calf) is traveling with the squad for Saturday's clash with Freiburg.

Impact Can suffered a setback last week in training, and is now questionable at best for Saturday's match. The defender did travel with the squad but that doesn't guarantee he will play. Can returning would be a boon for a Dortmund side who have already suffered multiple defensive injuries.

AUGUST 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with muscle injuries Can suffered a setback in his calf and then to his groin in training last week and is considered day-to-day by manager Marco Rose.

Impact Can missed the league match over the weekend and will miss the midweek DFB Cup game, as well. Given that he has multiple muscle injuries, he's not expected to start Saturday at Freiburg, though if he recovers quickly, that could change.
