Borussia Dortmund have released an update on the availability of forward Karim Adeyemi after he went off injured in their Bundesliga clash against Hertha Berlin over the weekend. After scoring against Chelsea in the Champions League, Adeyemi bagged another goal over the weekend but saw his game end early through injury.
The 21-year-old scored the only goal of the game on Wednesday in Dortmund's round of 16 first leg meeting with the Blues, handing Graham Potter his first defeat in the Champions League. Chelsea were unable to bounce back from that result, losing in the Premier League to bottom side Southampton courtesy of a James Ward-Prowse free kick.
Two defeats in less than four days has seen pressure mount significantly on Potter, although Todd Boehly and Co. look set to continue backing him. A mass overhaul has been conducted by the American businessman since he completed a takeover of the club in May 2022 and Potter is seen as the man to lead Chelsea into their new era.
