Guinean international Abdoulaye Touré has shed light on the personality and work ethic of his national teammate, Serhou Guirassy, in a candid interview with Sport News Africa.
The Le Havre midfielder discussed Guinea’s disappointing AFCON 2025 qualifying campaign while also offering insight into the Borussia Dortmund striker’s professional mindset.
Reflecting on the Syli National’s struggles, Touré acknowledged the team’s failure to secure a spot at the next continental tournament.
However, the conversation took a more personal turn when Guirassy’s name came up, leading Touré to share some striking details about his compatriot.
Despite missing out on the 2024 African Ballon d’Or, Guirassy, who has been in exceptional form at club level, is described by Touré as a player with an unwavering commitment to excellence.
According to the Le Havre midfielder, the Dortmund forward’s dedication and relentless pursuit of perfection set him apart, making him a standout figure both on and off the pitch.
Touré’s remarks offer a rare glimpse into the character of Guirassy, whose impressive performances in the Bundesliga have earned him widespread recognition.
While Guinea may have fallen short in their AFCON qualification bid, the presence of players like Guirassy continues to be a source of pride for the nation.
