Serhou Guirassy - Nets on only shot Guirassy scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Friday's 3-2 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Guirassy took only one shot during Friday's win, but it was all he needed to score a decisive goal during the 3-2 win. The striker dispatched his chance excellently and earned a crucial three points for Dortmund in the back half of the campaign. This goal moves him up to 16 on the campaign, with three in the last four matches.

Nico Schlotterbeck - Scores rare goal Schlotterbeck scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Friday's 3-2 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Schlotterbeck found the back of the net during Friday's win, a rare goal for the center-back, who doesn't often get involved in the attack. He's been a big part of the backline now that he's back healthy, but his value will likely come defensively, as he isn't set for any sort of improved offensive role.

Champions League winner Niklas Süle retiring at 30 after injuries

Champions League winner and five-time Bundesliga champion Niklas Süle has announced his retirement at the age of 30 after an injury scare led him to reconsider his future

MAY 7 • Associated Press

Niklas Sule - Will retire in summer Sule will retire from professional football at the end of the 2025/26 season when his contract with Borussia Dortmund expires on June 30, the center-back announced on the Spielmach...

Impact Sule revealed the knee scare he suffered during the match at Hoffenheim was the defining moment that confirmed his decision, admitting he broke down in tears in the shower believing he had suffered a third ACL rupture before being given the all-clear the following day. The German international joined Dortmund from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2022 and made 109 appearances for the club, contributing three goals across four seasons that included a near-miss title challenge in his first year and a Champions League final appearance in his second. Across his entire Bundesliga career, he made 299 appearances, while earning 49 caps for the German national team. Sule expressed deep affection for Dortmund and the city, describing the atmosphere of his first season as among the most powerful emotional experiences of his career, and admitting it will be hard to leave a place where his children have grown up.

Niklas Sule - Late call Friday Sule (undisclosed) returned to partial training and is hoped to be available for Friday's clash against Frankfurt, according to coach Niko Kovac. "Nikki have notably participated i...

Impact Sule has been operating in a rotational capacity this season, limiting the immediate impact of his absence on the starting lineup. His return to partial training is a positive development, with the coaching staff hopeful of having him available for the weekend fixture. Luca Reggiani is expected to continue covering in the back line should Sule be unable to go Friday.

Ramy Bensebaini - Season could be done Bensebaini (foot) remains unavailable and has been ruled out of Friday's clash against Frankfurt, with coach Niko Kovac also expressing doubt over his availability for the subseque...

Impact Bensebaini has been dealing with a foot issue since picking up the problem in the DFB Pokal, and the club is clearly not prepared to rush him back before he is fully right with the season drawing to a close. Luca Reggiani and Filippo Mane remain the most likely candidates to cover in the back line in his continued absence as Dortmund push through the final fixtures of their Bundesliga campaign. If the Algerian can't return against Bremen for the season final, he would end the campaign with seven goals and two assists to go with 55 tackles and 113 clearances in 30 appearances across all competitions.

Impact Nmecha had been a regular starter before the injury emerged, making his potential return a significant boost for Dortmund heading into the weekend. His participation in partial training is an encouraging sign, though a final decision on his availability will depend on how he responds over the coming days.

Impact Adeyemi missed the last four games due to a muscular injury but could make his return in Friday's clash against the eagles after resuming team training this week. Manager Kovac confirmed he would like all three returning players to be available for Friday, though the partial nature of their reintegration suggests the final call will depend on how they respond in the remaining sessions.

Gregor Kobel - Gives up game's only goal Kobel made three saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Monchengladbach.

Impact Kobel did make three saves but he conceded the late winner against Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday. The loss won't impact Dortmund much when it comes to getting a spot in Europe next season but Kobel will need to be better against a Frankfurt side which has put in 57 goals in 32 domestic games.

Karim Adeyemi - Still out Adeyemi (strain) is out for Sunday's match against Gladbach.

Impact Adeyemi is not going to make his return this week, as he appeared to have failed his testing in the build-up to play. This will leave the winger with only two more games to return in this season, hoping to make it back when facing Frankfurt as he tries for a national team spot in June.

Race for Champions League qualification and survival battles keeping Bundesliga on edge

Four teams are vying to join Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League next season and a host more are fighting for survival in the Bundesliga

APRIL 30 • Associated Press

Felix Nmecha - Missing another match Nmecha (knee) is out for Sunday's match against Gladbach, according to his club.

Impact Nmecha is not going to be ready for action yet, as the midfielder has not joined team training and will need more time to recover. He was planning to return this week, but it has come too early, still needing a further week to recover. The plan will now be to get him in team training over the next week, potentially fit to face Frankfurt on May 8.

Ramy Bensebaini - Picks up injury Bensebaini is out for Sunday's match against Gladbach due to a foot injury, according to manager Niko Kovac.

Impact Bensebaini is not going to make the call after a Cup injury last week, as the defender is suffering from a swollen foot. With the issue being something hard to play through, the club appears to be taking a cautious approach and not risking him, as they have a UCL spot and look to be set for second place in the league. This will leave Luca Reggiani and Filippo Mane as potential replacements, both named by manager Kovac as possible options.

Karim Adeyemi - Trains Thursday, late call Sunday Adeyemi (strain) was back in training and is questionable for Sunday's match against Gladbach, according to his club.

Impact Adeyemi was suffering from a muscle injury and will look to make his comeback this weekend after getting into partial training. After three games out, this is positive, as they could push him to be an option Sunday if he continues to train. However, he will look to remain fit for a possible bid with Germany at the World Cup, still having a decent season with 10 goal contributions in 26 appearances (15 starts).
