DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Borussia Dortmund will be without Youssoufa Moukoko for about six weeks and the Germany forward is to miss the Champions League match against Chelsea on Wednesday. Dortmund says the 18-year-old Moukoko sustained an ankle ligament injury on Saturday in its Bundesliga game with Werder Bremen. Sporting director Sebastian Kehl says “it’s a bitter message for him and for us.” Moukoko has scored six goals and set up four more in 18 Bundesliga appearances this season.
