Julien Duranville wants to take a step forward this season and prove himself important for Borussia Dortmund. Unfortunately, the young Red Devil has a very fragile physique.
Touted as one of the greatest talents to ever emerge from the RSC Anderlecht training center, Julien Duranville struggling to get started at Borussia Dortmund.
The cause? Recurring injury problems, which considerably slow down his progress. This season finally seemed like the right time to try to take a step forward.
The Dortmund coach Nuri Sahin had also explained that he wanted the 18-year-old Belgian to prove important to the team. Since the start of the season, Duranville has played 3 matches (97 minutes of play) and scored one goal.
Recently, Duranville had even learned “good” news, that of the absence of its competitor Karim Adeyemi in the Champions League this week.
Unfortunately for the former Anderlecht man, fate caught up with him at the worst time. Indeed, Nuri Sahin explained at a press conference that Duranville was also injured and will not play before the next international break. He is also absent from the Red Devils selection for the Nations League matches.
