Borussia Dortmund says midfielder Mario Goetze will miss training for three days because of a groin strain.
The Bundesliga club said on its website Tuesday that the 19-year-old Goetze contracted the minor injury during Dortmund's 2-0 win at home over Nuremberg on Saturday.
Team doctor Markus Braun recommended a special rehabilitation program for the Germany international.
It's unclear whether Goetze will be fit for Dortmund's trip to Leverkusen in the league on Saturday.
