Stretchered off in the final moments of last night's UCL loss to visiting Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund central defender Nico Schlotterbeck could be set for a very long spell on the sidelines.
BVB trainer Nuri Sahin, club personnel boss Sebastian Kehl and squad captain Emré Can all offered up words of serious concern following the full-time whistle.
"The sight was terrible," Sahin remarked at the post-match presser, "We have to deal with this shock. If you look at the images, it doesn't look good. A sleepless night awaits."
"His foot is thickly bandaged," BVB sporing director Kehl added in the mixed zone, "We'll await the diagnosis tomorrow."
"He was in a lot of pain on the pitch," Can said in his post-match interview with German broadcaster DAZN, "I hope it's not too bad."
