MSport Fulfils a Fan’s Dream: Digital Meet with Serhou Guirassy

From thousands of entries across Africa, one name stood out—“Cobo.” A football blogger and lifelong BVB supporter, Cobo was selected through the #MSportSeekMShola campaign to host a one-on-one digital interview with Borussia Dortmund star Serhou Guirassy.

More than just autographs or football tips, the moment reflected the “Be Like MShola” ethos: unwavering belief and a shared love for the game. Guirassy spoke passionately about what makes Dortmund special—not just the football, but the way the entire city lives for the club. In his words, it’s “Dortmund before the city”—a deep-rooted bond that echoes the spirit of MShola.

Serhou Guirassy: From Dreamer to Dortmund Star

Guirassy’s move to Borussia Dortmund fulfilled a childhood dream inspired by legendary Champions League clashes against Bayern Munich. Although he arrived recovering from injury, stepping into the black-and-yellow kit was a personal triumph.

“Signal Iduna Park isn’t just a stadium—it’s a monument. The Yellow Wall’s roar echoes like thunder,” he said.

If he could relive one match, it would be Dortmund’s unforgettable win over Barcelona—a night when team spirit and crowd energy became one.
