Dortmund's Nuri Sahin out for two months

Borussia Dortmund's Nuri Sahin faces a two- month injury break, club doctor Markus Braun announced in an official statement.

The Turkish international underwent a knee surgery Wednesday as doctor Heinz Juergen Eichhorn removed inflamed tissue from his left knee at the Isarpark hospital, reports Xinhua.

The 25-year-old midfielder, who hasn't played since July 27, will be sidelined for another two months according to Dortmund club doctor Markus Braun.

Sahin re-joined the "BVB" in 2013 after spells at Feyernoord Rotterdam, Real Madrid and Liverpool.
