A smile on your face and a thumbs up. Sébastien Haller, who has testicular cancer, posted a photo of himself on Instagram on Thursday, along with a positive message about his state of health.

“Good evening everyone, I wanted to inform you that the 1st step has been accomplished! I want to thank Borussia Dortmund and the medical team who have been exceptional with me. A big thank you also to all the nursing staff of the hospital for their support and their benevolence, ”wrote the Ivorian international without specifying whether he had undergone a first operation.

Monday evening, Borussia Dortmund, his new club, announced that the center-forward had a tumor in the testicles. The former Ajax Amsterdam player had been admitted to a specialized medical center according to the German club. Many messages of support have been sent to him since.

“The whole BVB family wishes Sébastien a full recovery as soon as possible and that we can hug him again soon,” said BVB sporting director Sebastian Kehl.

“It’s terribly difficult for us. The diagnosis is still pending. He left for Germany for additional examinations and we cross our fingers for Sébastien, for all his family, so that he recovers as quickly as possible, ”said the Dortmund coach.

Sébastien Haller had already reacted on Twitter on Tuesday to the many messages of support. “Thanks to you, this will only be one more test on our way,” he wrote.
