BVB star striker Guirassy fit for Bayern clash | OneFootball

In the Bundesliga top match against FC Bayern, Borussia Dortmund can count on the participation of top striker Serhou Guirassy.

Borussia Dortmund will likely be able to rely on Serhou Guirassy in the Bundesliga top match against FC Bayern. The 29-year-old forward has overcome his thigh problems and, according to BILD, is on the verge of a full return to team training. This means he should be ready to play on Saturday evening (6:30 p.m.) at the Allianz Arena.

Recently, there had been some minor concerns surrounding the goal scorer. Guirassy returned from his international duty with the Guinea national team carrying a knock. Due to muscular problems in his thigh, he missed the World Cup qualifier against Mozambique and left the team camp early. At the time, the Guinea association stated that the striker was “physically severely weakened.”

Since Guinea had already missed out on qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, Guirassy was given a few days off by the national team. He used the time in Dortmund for regeneration—with apparent success. As BILD reports, the striker should be able to train normally again on Tuesday. There is therefore nothing standing in the way of his appearance in the classic against FC Bayern.

Guirassy important for the BVB attack

Guirassy is one of BVB’s most important attacking players this season. Under coach Niko Kovac, the former Stuttgart player has already scored six competitive goals and is considered a central figure in Dortmund’s attacking play. After a short injury break, he was already back in the starting eleven for the matches against Athletic Bilbao (4:1) and RB Leipzig (1:1). The renewed forced break during the international trip caused some brief unrest, but it appears to have had no lasting consequences.

According to the Ruhr Nachrichten, the injury is the same muscular problem that had already troubled Guirassy before the Mainz match. The Dortmund camp did not want to take any risks—making BVB’s relief over his recovery all the greater.
