Hummels doubtful for Wembley final

Hummels doubtful for Wembley final

Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels is doubtful for the Champions League final but midfielder Mario Goetze is continuing his recovery from injury.

Dortmund, which plays Bayern Munich in an all-German final at Wembley next Saturday, says Goetze is due to resume team training on Tuesday and that it looks ''quite good'' for the 20-year-old.

Goetze is recovering from a left hamstring tear sustained in the return leg of the semifinal against Real Madrid.

Hummels faces a race against time, however, after limping out of Dortmund's 2-1 Bundesliga loss at home to Hoffenheim with an ankle injury.

Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp says, ''there's a chance for Wembley but it will be close.''

Hummels missed the German Cup game against his former side with flu in February.
