Ballack missed training on Friday back at the team's base in Tenero and he was unable to join the eve-of-match session at the stadium in Vienna on Saturday.
The German football assocation said the question of whether he could play was "fully open" with just over 24 hours to go before the final.
The 31-year-old midfielder has scored two goals during the tournament and played every minute of his countries campaign thus far.
He was the outstanding player in the 3-2 win over Portugal in the quarter-finals.
The Chelsea player was less impressive against Turkey in the semi-finals but his absence would be a huge blow to the German team, who are bidding for their fourth European Championship title.
Ballack has never played in a major final for Germany. He missed the final of the 2002 World Cup through suspension and was part of the team that lost the 2006 semi-final to Italy.
