Borussia Dortmund announced on Monday that Niklas Süle sustained a calf muscle injury in the friendly against Juventus.

The report from the Ruhrpott club suggests central defender will be “unavailable for the next two months”.

Süle, who was substituted for Mats Hummels on his farewell game, sustained an injury before the half-time break while Yan Couto came on in his place.

BVB will therefore be without Süle for the DFB-Pokal clash against Rot-Weiss Essen which is scheduled for Monday, August 18.

The 29-year-old centre-half will also be missing for the first five Bundesliga matchdays (against St.Pauli, Union Berlin, Heidenheim, Wolfsburg, and Mainz).

A longer absence would also jeopardize his role in the top games against RB Leipzig (October 4) and FC Bayern (October 18).
