Tullberg gives squad update at first press conference as Dortmund’s interim coach

At his first press conference as Borussia Dortmund’s interim coach, Mike Tullberg gave an update on his squad.

After Nuri Sahin was sacked as Borussia Dortmund coach earlier this week, U-19 coach Mike Tullberg has been put in charge on an interim basis for Saturday’s Bundesliga clash with Werder Bremen.

Speaking at his first press conference in the role on Friday, Tullberg revealed that Serhou Guirassy is fit to play despite picking up a knock recently, while there is a question mark over Waldemar Anton.

“He (Guirassy) will be able to play tomorrow. Waldemar Anton didn’t train yesterday, so we’ll have to wait and see today. Niklas Süle is out for tomorrow, of course,” Tullberg told reporters.

The Dane is, of course, aiming to end Dortmund’s four-game winless streak in all competitions.

“This is about us. We don’t have to make ourselves smaller than we are. We have a clear ambition to win. We have a clear plan of how we want to do it. The boys will understand that,” Tullberg emphasized.
