Germany defender Antonio Rüdiger, a doubt for Saturday's Euro 2024 last-16 clash against Denmark with a thigh strain, took to the training pitch for a final session on Friday ahead of the trip to Dortmund.

Only the first 15 minutes of the session were visible to the media.

Whether Rüdiger plays after sustaining the injury in the 1-1 draw against Switzerland will probably only be decided on match day.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann will definitely have to replace his central defensive partner Jonathan Tah, who is suspended.

Dortmund's Nico Schlotterbeck is likely to replace the Bayer Leverkusen man in the starting line-up.
