The 20-year-old France international was fined and suspended until Monday for missing Thursday’s training, but the ban has been extended indefinitely.

Dortmund director of football Michael Zorc said: “Our focus now is on preparation for the Bundesliga opening match in Wolfsburg [on 19 August]. Dembele, of course, has the opportunity to complete an individual training session outside the group.”
