BERLIN, Oct. 22-- Having to replace team captain Marco Reus when facing Inter this Wednesday in the Champions League comes at the worst possible time for Borussia Dortmund. The struggling club seemed to have found its way back to success after controversial debates about the team's unpleasant ups and downs this season. The 30-year-old German international is sidelined due to heavy flu but might return this Saturday for action in the Bundesliga. The Blacks and Yellows diary currently seems to be packed with challenges. A delicate derby follows the clash with the Italian side against Schalke, Moenchengladbach in the German Cup, the national league duels against VfL Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich, and the re-match against Inter. Lately, Reus stood for the upswing of the Blacks and Yellow's scoring the winning goal against Moenchengladbach. Now it is on coach Lucien Favre to find an answer to survive in Italy without his team leader. The loss of Reus might turn the attention to Dortmund's newest delicate issue of Jadon Sancho. The London-born striker was banned for last weekend's after he had returned late from international's with England without approval. The 19-year-old gifted but moody youngster has been charged with a fine worth 100,000 Euros as his latest failure hasn't been his only one. Dortmund's actions are said to secure the team-spirit. Ahead of the club's announcement, Reus was informed and gave his approval. Sancho is going to return for the duel against Inter "as we get things fixed for the teams to benefit behind closed doors," Reus added. |
