Borussia Dortmund returns from London after Emirates Cup win

Borussia Dortmund has returned to Germany following a short trip to London, where they secured the 2026 Emirates Cup after a 3-2 victory over FC Arsenal, despite losing a subsequent penalty shootout 4-5.

The team utilized a specialized travel arrangement, using a De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 propeller plane and landing at the Biggin Hill regional airfield.

Regarding squad health, midfielder Maximilian Beiers appeared to have sustained an injury to his left knee, as evidenced by kinesiotape worn upon the team's arrival. Additionally, Carney Chukwuemeka and Marcel Sabitzer were absent from the return. The team is scheduled to begin preparations for the season-opening Supercup match against AS Roma on Tuesday.
