Est. Return 10/10/2026
Sidelined with muscle injury
Lerma will be unavailable for the time being after suffering a muscular injury while playing for Borussia Dortmund's U23 side against Fulham on Wednesday, according to WAZ.
ANALYSIS
Lerma picked up the injury during Wednesday's International Premier League Cup clash against Fulham, a match in which he scored before being forced off early. Subsequent examinations confirmed a muscular issue, though no precise recovery timeline has been provided beyond the 18-year-old being unavailable for the time being. Lerma was expected to gain significant playing time with Dortmund's U23 side while continuing his adaptation to senior football, so the setback will temporarily interrupt his development and push for first-team opportunities.
