Mainz forward Jonathan Burkardt has been passed fit for Sunday's Bundesliga clash with Borussia Dortmund.

The German international has struggled with illlness during the international break, but as Mainz coach Bo Henriksen revealed at a press conference on Friday, the striker is fully fit and available.

“He's fine,” Henriksen stressed before adding:

“He was in training today and was at 100 percent. He's fit and ready.”
