Starts in friendly
Ryerson (calf) returned to the starting lineup for Saturday's friendly against AS Roma, the club posted.
Analysis: Ryerson picked up a calf issue during Norway's World Cup quarterfinal against England and was forced off, though the problem was not considered serious and was attributed to cramping. His inclusion in the starting lineup against AS Roma suggests he has progressed well enough to return to competitive action, and he should now be able to increase his workload as he prepares for the start of the campaign. The return is particularly encouraging for Borussia Dortmund given Ryerson's importance at the right wing-back and his ability to contribute from set pieces.
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.
