Even veteran Mats Hummels has to pass for the away game in Cologne

Borussia Dortmund has to do without the next player in the away game in Cologne. Defender Mats Hummels is out with a cold. That reports sky.

In addition to the 33-year-old, the long-term injured Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Mahmoud Dahoud (both shoulder surgeries), Sébastien Haller (tumor disease), Mateu Morey (knee surgery), Marco Reus (ankle injury) are not available to coach Edin Terzic.

The game against 1. FC Köln is still too early for regular goalkeeper Gregor Kobel (training) and Giovanni Reyna (strain).

BVB is optimistic that Hummels will not be out for long. In the two trend-setting games in the Champions League against FC Sevilla and the Bundesliga cracker against FC Bayern, he will probably be fit again.
