An explosion has hit a bus carrying German soccer team Borussia Dortmund to a Champions League match, the club says.
Player Marc Bartra has been injured and has been taken to hospital.
Police spokesperson Gunnar Wortmann told the Associated Press there were “three explosions near the team bus as they left the hotel to go to the stadium” and that “there was one player injured inside and damage to a window”.
Dortmund Police said there was no evidence of a threat to visitors at the stadium.
“It is not yet possible to say exactly what the explosion was or exactly where something exploded,” they said in a statement.
The team tweeted (in German) that the other players were safe.
The German club were due to play Monaco on Tuesday evening in the first leg of their quarter-final tie, but the match has been postponed.
