Reus Suffering with 'Dead Leg'

Wednesday, March 4

Bundesliga.com reported the initial diagnosis for Reus was a "dead leg."

Reus' injury was first announced by the club, with ESPN FC noting the potential impact Reus' absence may have on Dortmund's prospects:

Reus would later return to the bench during the Dresden tie, per Bundesliga.com. After the fixture, it was revealed that the substitution was precautionary, per TNC Bundesliga:

Klopp commented on the play that led to Reus' injury, per Arjun Pradeep:

There's no doubt Klopp will hope to see the Germany international return to action as soon as possible. BVB fans will likely let out a squeal of joy if Reus returns against Hamburg so soon after it looked as if he could be set for another spell on the sidelines.

Dortmund have suffered something of a dire season in 2014-15, but a recent upturn in form has seen them win four league games on the bounce, with the 25-year-old Reus scoring once in each of those fixtures, per WhoScored.com.
