Photo: Jule may have a cleft calf muscle absent for 6-12 weeks, Dortmund did not use it in central defender

Hupu, August 11, reported the latest report from the German media photo newspaper Dortmund and the team's reporter team that Jule's injury is affecting Dortmund.

The star defender was replaced in Hummels' farewell match (1-2 Juventus in a friendly match), and there was no confrontation at the time. But due to Jule's own defensive moves, he had to leave the field early, with an ice pack on his right ankle.

Doctors plan to have a check-up on Monday to make an accurate diagnosis. The Biography has learned the preliminary details about the player's injury.

In the worst case, Dortmund may have another defender who is out for several weeks due to injury.

And importantly, sources revealed that Jule's calf muscles are likely to tear! If diagnosed, he may need to rest for six to twelve weeks, depending on the severity of the injury.

However, all involved still hope that everything goes well. According to coach Nico Kovac, the biggest concern can at least be ruled out: Jule's old injury - who missed two months last season due to a torn lateral skin on the thigh - did not relapse.

The fact is: Jule's calf was already in unbearable pain before the game. Kovac explained, "His calf has some problems over the past few days, so we have been adjusting. We need to see if his calf has recovered or if there are other problems." After the game, the photo newspaper saw Jule limping away from the court.

Goalkeeper Gregor Kober witnessed Jule's injury from close range. He expressed the same feeling after the game, like all Dortmund fans: "I will definitely pray for him."
