A full house once again: the internationals joined in a training session on the pitch on Monday morning for the first time in the preparatory period for the 2023/24 season.

The players who were away on international duty in June had already completed the medical examinations and the performance diagnostics at the weekend. On Monday, they were back on the pitch with their team-mates for the first time in pre-season. As they have done in recent weeks, players from the U23s and U19s continued to form part of the training squad so that BVB coach Edin Terzic had a large group as his disposal. The warm-up was followed by coordination and passing drills, before the session concluded with a game scenario involving four mini goals. (cr)
