Borussia Dortmund midfielder Sebastian Kehl has suffered yet another setback in his bid to regain full fitness.

The 29-year-old underwent groin surgery over the summer, but has been unable to feature for Borussia so far this season and may be forced to go under the knife once again.

Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp told Bild: "It's just not getting any better. Sebastian is going from doctor to doctor without any results.

"His surgeon is now going to check on the groin again and on Friday he will see another specialist. Hopefully we will know more after that."

Kehl, who can also play in defence, has won more than 30 caps for Germany, but has not featured since the 2006 World Cup finals.
