Borussia Dortmund's injury situation has improved during the international break.

According to Bild, Waldemar Anton, Julien Duranville and Giovanni Reyna all returned to full training on Friday and are expected to be in the squad for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Freiburg.

Karim Adeyemi is also making progress and resumed training with the ball on Friday, but with the club wary of rushing him back into action, the Freiburg clash probably comes too soon. If all goes according to plan, he could be back in the squad to face Bayern Munich a week later.

Niklas Süle, on the other hand, is unlikely to be fit in time for the Bayern game after recently having his ankle syndesmosis brace removed.

Jamie Gittens, who recently pulled out of the England U21 squad, has injured his shoulder, according to Bild, who states that the severity of the injury is not yet known.

Kicker, meanwhile, reports that the winger is expected to train normally over the coming week and should be fit to face Freiburg.
