Borussia Dortmund’s Serhou Guirassy set to return against Dinamo Zagreb

Serhou Guirassy

Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy has rejoined the squad ahead of their crucial Champions League clash against Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday, November 27. The match marks the fifth group-stage fixture, with Dortmund seeking to strengthen their position in the competition.

Recovery in Time for European Action

Guirassy, who missed the previous weekend’s Bundesliga action due to illness, has made a swift recovery.

The Guinean international participated in full training with his teammates on Tuesday, November 26, signaling his readiness to travel with the squad to Croatia.

Despite his availability, it is reported that Guirassy is unlikely to feature prominently in the match. According to German media, head coach Nuri Şahin is cautious about rushing the striker back into action.

The manager is focused on ensuring Guirassy is fully fit for Dortmund’s highly anticipated Bundesliga Klassiker against Bayern Munich on Saturday, November 30.

Strategic Approach by Dortmund

Şahin’s decision to limit Guirassy’s involvement on Wednesday reflects the broader strategy to preserve key players for critical fixtures.

With the Klassiker looming, Dortmund will need all their firepower to challenge Bayern Munich in a match that could significantly impact the Bundesliga title race.

While Guirassy’s potential absence from the starting lineup in Zagreb may limit his immediate contribution, his presence in the traveling squad underscores his importance to the team.

Dortmund will rely on their depth to navigate the group-stage tie while managing the fitness of one of their key attackers.

A Crucial Week for BVB

The return of Guirassy comes at a pivotal time for Borussia Dortmund, as the club juggles its European ambitions with domestic priorities.

The Champions League encounter against Dinamo Zagreb is a must-win for BVB, who aim to secure qualification to the knockout stages.

Simultaneously, preparations for the Klassiker require careful player management to maintain momentum in the Bundesliga.

Guirassy’s recovery is a welcome boost for Dortmund, providing the squad with added depth and quality as they navigate this demanding week.

Whether or not he takes the field in Zagreb, his return signals positive news for both the team and their aspirations on multiple fronts.
