Aubameyang a doubt for DFB-Pokal Klassiker
Borussia Dortmund could be without top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang when they take on Bayern Munich in the DFB-Pokal on Thursday (AEDT).
Aubameyang scored his 21st goal of the season as Dortmund defeated Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Sunday, but sustained a muscular injury during a training session on Tuesday.
Manager Peter Stoger is unsure whether the Gabon striker will be fit in time for the Klassiker at the Allianz Arena, though he is confident the defending champion has enough options to cope with his potential absence.
"The availability of Aubameyang for Wednesday is still not certain. We have to wait," Stoger told a pre-match news conference.
"We have several options in the event of Aubameyang missing out."
Aubameyang has scored six goals in as many appearances and has this week reportedly agreed to extend his stay at Signal Induna Park through to 2021.
