Exact moment revealed of Nico Schlotterbeck’s injury

HERZOGENAUARCH, Germany - September 30: Center-back Nico Schlotterbeck suffered an ankle injury during a seemingly harmless, "fun and competitive" dribbling drill involving slalom poles at a training session in Herzogenaurach. Tragically, Schlotterbeck lost control of the ball and collided with fellow player Finn Jeltsch, causing him to twist his ankle and go down.

The 23-year-old BVB star left the session and subsequently underwent an MRI scan, which revealed that the injury was not as severe as his previous one at the World Cup and did not necessitate surgery. This development is welcomed news for both Borussia Dortmund and the German national team.
