Nuri Sahin facing two-month absence

Borussia Dortmund are likely to be without Nuri Sahin for the next two months.

The Turkey international has been forced to undergo an operation to repair the damage that he suffered to a tendon in his left knee three weeks ago.

A statement on the club's official website read: "Nuri Sahin has had surgery on Wednesday in the Isar Clinic in Platt Park Ling.

"Dr Heinz-Jurgen Eichhorn removed inflamed tissue from Sahin's left knee during surgery. Borussia Dortmund team doctor Markus Braun based an approximately two-month rehabilitation period for the Turkish national player."

Sahin, 25, returned for a second stint with Dortmund last summer.
