Sebastian Haller has scored his first competitive goal for Borussia Dortmund since recovering from testicular cancer, a goal he also scored on World Cancer Day, February 4, 2023.
The former West Ham striker, who returned to action three weeks ago, scored Dortmund’s third goal with a 51st-minute header to help BVB trash Freiburg in their 5-1 Bundesliga clash.
The 28-year-old Ivorian striker had been diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2022 and had been ruled out of competitive football to attend to his health.
Haller was diagnosed days after signing for Dortmund as Erling Haaland’s replacement, and needed two operations. He has had four rounds of chemotherapy, and surgery in November.
