No injury, just cramping
Ryerson (calf) was not seriously injured after being forced off during Norway's World Cup quarterfinal against England, with the issue attributed to cramping, according to Ruhr Nachrichten.
Analysis: Ryerson had already been managing discomfort in the area for some time, having been forced off early in Norway's group stage match against Senegal and subsequently missing two matches due to the recurring issue. Those same concerns had raised questions about his availability heading into the new season, with an initial expectation of around three weeks out pending further assessment. This latest scare, however, was confirmed as cramping rather than a fresh setback. Ryerson is expected to resume training with Dortmund in early August following the club's tour of Asia, after currently enjoying his post-World Cup vacation.
Out at least three weeks
Ryerson is expected to be sidelined for at least three weeks due to a recurring injury issue, though the full extent of the problem remains unclear, according to BILD.
Analysis: Ryerson was forced off early during Norway's second World Cup group-stage match against Senegal and subsequently missed the following two contests. Team doctor Ole Sand had previously revealed that the defender had been managing discomfort in the affected area for some time and required rest during the tournament. Those issues have now resurfaced, raising concerns about his availability heading into the new season. While Ryerson is currently expected to miss around three weeks, further medical assessments will determine whether a longer absence is necessary.
