🤕 Niklas Süle Injured in Training
Borussia Dortmund have confirmed that defender Niklas Süle suffered a muscle injury during a game and will miss several weeks. The setback comes just days before the Bundesliga opener, forcing BVB to reshuffle their defensive plans.
🔗 Full story via WDR
My Take: Dortmund’s title challenge gets an early stress test. Losing Süle’s leadership at the back could hurt against high-press opponents. Expect Schlotterbeck or new signing replacements to shoulder the burden.

🔗 Read on BR24
My Take: Rummenigge’s warning isn’t new—but it’s timely. Salary inflation risks turning the Bundesliga into a two-tier league where only a handful of clubs can realistically compete.
