Borussia Dortmund s Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is likely to miss the DFP Cup last of 16 clash against Bayern Munich due to a muscle injury.
The 28-year-old was on target in Dortmund s 2-1 win over Hoffenheim in a Bundesliga game on Saturday but sustained his injury in a training session on Monday.
"Aubameyang s participation in Wednesday s clash is not certain," Dortmund s new coach Peter Stoger told reporters on Tuesday.
"We have many options to cope with his potential absence."
The Gabon striker is enjoying a fine season with Dortmund, scoring 21 goals in 23 matches in all competitions.
He was included in a three-man shortlist for CAF s African Player of the Year award along with Liverpool duo Mohamed Salah of Egypt and Senegal s Sadio Mane.
Aubameyang won the prestigious CAF award in 2015.
