BVB professional Sébastien Haller will not be able to play for several months, but the most important thing is that the operation on the striker, who is suffering from a testicular tumor, went well according to his club.
BVB and his professional Sébastien Haller breathe a sigh of relief. The footballer suffering from a testicular tumor has had an operation. This was confirmed by his club Borussia Dortmund. “The operation went very, very well and he is on a very good path”said BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl in a video interview with Dortmund’s shirt sponsor published on Tuesday “1&1”.
The 28-year-old ex-Frankfurter Haller switched from Ajax Amsterdam back to the Bundesliga for BVB in the summer. “He was super stable and incredibly positive and also said to the team: ‘Do your job, give everything. Make sure when I come back we’re still in the running.’ And so will the boys”said Kehl.
Sébastien Haller will be absent from BVB for a few months
Soccer professional Yeray Álvarez, who has been treated twice for a testicular tumor, recommended Haller to remain calm and patient. “I would advise him to put football and all that aside and focus on family and friends. That’s how I did it”the 27-year-old Athletic Bilbao player said in an interview with the “sports picture”. “They will give him the strength he needs, in addition to what he gets from the fans and his football colleagues.”
In December 2016, Álvarez was first diagnosed with a tumor on his testicles. He also underwent surgery and did not require chemotherapy. He made his comeback in early February. But in June 2017, another tumor was diagnosed. Álvarez had to undergo chemotherapy and only returned to the pitch months later.
BVB sports director Kehl expects Haller to “in a few months” will be back on the pitch.
