The fears have unfortunately been confirmed: Marco Reus will miss BVB in the game in Wolfsburg.

After Reus made his comeback against Bochum at the weekend, the BVB captain suffered another setback. As Edin Terzic revealed at the press conference on Monday, Reus had to stop the training session on Sunday because he was "in pain again".

Although the BVB coach was not completely pessimistic ("It didn't look that bad today."), the game against VfL Wolfsburg will take place without Reus. According to the information provided by Sky and Ruhr Nachrichten, the 33-year-old did not make the trip to the Autostadt on Monday evening! Instead, U23 player Marco Pasalic was happy about a squad nomination.

It remains to be seen what consequences Reus' renewed failure will have on his participation in the World Cup. Hansi Flick will announce his final squad this Thursday.

The fact that Flick is considered a huge Borussia fan speaks in favor of a nomination. However, the fact that Reus has only been able to collect 70 minutes of action since mid-September and his ankle has been causing problems for weeks speaks against it.
