Which new Dortmund signings will make their debut?

Not only will Peter Bosz make his debut as Dortmund manager during the pre-season, but so will a few new signings. New boys Ömer Toprak and Dan-Axel Zagadou trained with the first-team and are likely to feature sooner than later. Neven Subotic also returned from his Cologne loan, whilst Gotze, who was diagnosed with a metabolism disturbance, is back in the squad.

Who will be absent from Dortmund’s pre-season squad?

Raphael Guerreiro underwent surgery and has thus been handed a lengthy layoff. Newly-signed Mahmoud Dahoud and Maxmillian Philipp join Mikel Merino on extended holidays due to their Euro U-21 participation.
