Pablo Alcácer completed his first "proper" BVB training session this Wednesday. Lucien Favre was satisfied ("He did everything with the team") and is contemplating whether to take the new signing with him to Hanover for the Friday fixture: "It's possible. We'll make the decision tomorrow," the head coach said.

Michael Zorc also had some more to say about the last signing of the summer transfer window. "His way of playing football makes him a very good fit for us," said the Borussia Dortmund Sporting Director, adding: "We took the time that we needed and we gave the coach the time that he needed to get to know the individual attacking players, and we made the decision that we wanted to bring in a new number 9."

Another attacking player could be set to make his comeback soon: Jacob Bruun Larsen will return to full team training at the beginning of next week after recovering from a foot injury. (br)
