Borussia Dortmund receive Karim Adeyemi injury boost | OneFootball

Karim Adeyemi, who has missed Borussia Dortmund’s last eight games, returned to light running duties last week and is expected to resume full training.

That’s reported by Ruhr Nachrichten, who further add that it is unclear as to when Adeyemi will return to Borussia Dortmund’s matchday squad as they will need to see how the forward’s muscles react following his recent strain.

Adeyemi has scored five and created five in eight games across all competitions this season and was becoming an important player under Nuri Şahin, but German attacker – who missed nine games last season – was sidelined until the current international break at the earliest.

When Adeyemi returns to the first team is unknown. But with several injuries throughout the squad, the return to running for the 22-year-old is certainly a positive.

As for Julien Duranville, who occupies a similar position to Adeyemi, the Belgian also returned to light running duties but is being monitored closely following his injury history.
