Borussia Dortmund wants to fight the crisis by joining forces – but the training ground is as empty as it has ever been. Too many injuries, in Wolfsburg Nuri Sahin was forced to bring together eleven professionals.
This also affects the preparation for the important home game against RB Leipzig (Saturday, 6.30 p.m.). Now Borussia Dortmund even reacted drastically. As a consequence of the staff shortage, public training in the youth stadium is canceled.
Borussia Dortmund: Consequence of staff shortages
BVB rarely lets their guard down during training. Most sessions take place behind closed doors. The free tickets for the public training session, which was scheduled to take place in Wolfsburg the day after the cup exit, were quickly snapped up.

In the short term, however, the Black and Yellows announced a change that the fans are unlikely to like. Because there are too few players at the start and, on top of that, load control has to take place after the strenuous 120 minutes of the cup, public training has been canceled.

“Due to the current number of players who are injured or ailing, the team will not train on the pitch, contrary to what was initially planned,” the club said. The fans who still gathered at the training ground at 1 p.m. were not left out in the rain. After the session, the professionals come to the supporters for autographs and selfies.
