Borussia Dortmund striker Sebastien Haller returns to training with former club Ajax just three months after he was diagnosed with a malignant testicular tumour... as the Dutch side's boss Alfred Schreuder confirms the 'wonderful' news

Sebastien Haller returned to training with former club Ajax on Tuesday as part of his recovery from a testicular tumour.

Haller received the diagnosis shortly after signing for Borussia Dortmund for £31m in July following an impressive 2021-22 season which saw him score 34 goals in all competitions for the Dutch side.

After feeling unwell during Dortmund's pre-season tour of Switzerland, he underwent tests which revealed a malignant tumour.
