Dortmund defender Sokratis out for two weeks

10 November 2014 11:16

Borussia Dortmund will be without Sokratis for at least two weeks after the Greek central defender broke his fibula in the 1-0 win over Borussia Moenchengladbach on Sunday.

He was injured in the 82nd minute as he fouled Andre Hahn and picked up his fifth yellow card of the season into the bargain.

Sokratis, 26, will miss the next league game at Paderborn on November 22 after also being forced to sit out Greece's Euro 2016 qualifier with the Faroe Islands on Friday and the friendly with Serbia four days later.

However, a club statement said they hoped he would be fit to return for the Champions League match with Arsenal in London on November 26.
