Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Elversberg

Cole Campbell has completed a permanent move from Borussia Dortmund to Elversberg. A fee near €6m and a Dortmund buy-back clause were reported, not confirmed by the clubs.

Florent Muslija's cruciate ligament rupture has dealt a potentially fatal blow to Fortuna Düsseldorf's Bundesliga promotion hopes. The Kosovo international faces six to nine months out after his studs caught in the turf against Holstein Kiel, leaving manager Daniel Thioune without his creative fulcrum for the crucial second half of the season.

Fortuna Düsseldorf will sack Markus Anfang after just six months, becoming their second managerial casualty this season. The decision exposes deeper dysfunction at a club that has burned through five managers in four years, turning promotion contenders into a toxic environment where success has become impossible.
