Impact Schlotterbeck was likely to be an option Wednesday and has made his return to a bench spot, not yet ready for starting time. That said, he will likely work off the bench at some point to test his legs. Once he does see the field, a regular starting spot should be waiting, only his second time all season not starting when an option.

Late call against Atalanta Schlotterbeck (muscular) was back in team training Tuesday and will be a late call for Wednesday's second leg against Atalanta in the Champions League, the club announced.

Impact Schlotterbeck is trending toward a return from the muscular injury that kept him out of the last three games after getting back on the training pitch with the squad Tuesday, putting him firmly in the mix for Wednesday's Champions League second leg against Atalanta. The center-back will undergo late fitness checks to determine if he's ready to suit up, with a final decision expected in the coming hours. If he gets the green light, he's likely to slide straight back into the starting XI as part of the Black and Yellow's back three.

Impact Schlotterbeck sat out the last two matches with a muscular issue and is trending toward a comeback after returning to training Thursday, but he's set to be held out again for Saturday's showdown against Leipzig. The center-back is pushing to get back on the field, yet the medical staff are taking the cautious route to avoid any setback. In the meantime, Ramy Bensebaini is expected to maintain his expanded role in the back three until Schlotterbeck is fully cleared to return.

Suffers muscular issues Schlotterbeck (muscular) is ruled out for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Atalanta, the club announced.

Impact Schlotterbeck is dealing with muscular issues and will miss Tuesday's Champions League clash against Atalanta after failing to take part in the final training session. It is a significant blow for the Black and Yellow with Niklas Sule (thigh) and Filippo Mane (undisclosed) already sidelined while captain Emre Can (groin) remains a true game-time decision. If Can is unable to go, Luca Reggiani would be in line for an expanded role against the Italians as Dortmund scramble to piece together a makeshift backline.

His absence will impact the starting squad since he has been an undisputed starter in the backline of Dortmund, with Ramy Bensebaini likely starting his place for that clash.
