Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy will miss the team's upcoming match against Elversberg after suffering a thigh strain, the club confirmed on Friday. The injury sidelines the forward for what would have been a Bundesliga fixture against the newly promoted side.
Guirassy, who joined Dortmund in the summer transfer window, has been a key figure in the attack this season. His absence leaves a gap in the forward line as Dortmund look to maintain their position in the upper reaches of the table. The club did not specify a timeline for his return, though thigh strains typically require several weeks of rehabilitation.
The match against Elversberg represents a test of Dortmund's squad depth as they navigate a congested fixture schedule across domestic and European competitions. Coach Nuri Sahin will need to adjust his attacking options, with Maximilian Beier or Karim Adeyemi potential candidates to fill the void.
