Earns Sweden call-up
Bolin has been added to the Sweden squad for the upcoming Nations League matches against Bosnia and Herzegovina and Romania, according to the club.
Analysis: Bolin earned the late call-up following a strong run of performances for Borussia Monchengladbach. The attacker has scored twice while creating five chances across four Bundesliga appearances this season, also contributing six tackles and two interceptions. His recent club form could put him in contention for minutes during Sweden's final two matches of the international break.
Could start Saturday
Bolin (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game against Mainz, with interim coach Jan-Moritz Lichte confirming he is even a candidate to start.
Analysis: Bolin had only trained individually earlier in the week due to muscular problems, putting a question mark over his involvement, but interim coach Lichte confirmed at the press conference that Bolin is available for the starting lineup. Having started in all three of Gladbach's matches this season, Bolin is widely expected to keep his place if deemed fully fit.
Could be option Saturday
Bolin (undisclosed) could be an option for Saturday's game against Mainz on Saturday, according to assistant manager Jan-Moritz Lichte. "With the exception of the long-term injured players, everyone is available."
Analysis: Bolin missed Tuesday's training session, but based on Lichte's words, he could make the squad for the final match before the international break. Bolin has started in all three of Monchengladbach's matches in the current Bundesliga campaign, so if he's deemed fit enough, he's widely expected to keep his place in the XI.
Dealing with muscular issue
Bolin missed Tuesday's team training due to a muscular issue and is uncertain for the upcoming Bundesliga clash against Mainz, according to Rheinische Post.
Analysis: Bolin was withdrawn at halftime of Saturday's 5-0 loss to Freiburg before sitting out the first team session of the week. The extent of the issue remains unclear, leaving his status against Mainz in doubt. His participation in training over the coming days should provide a better indication of his availability, with Shuto Machino expected to start in his place if Bolin is ruled out.
Gets a brace
Bolin scored two goals to go with six shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 4-3 defeat versus SV 07 Elversberg. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 47th minute.
Analysis: Bolin scored two of Monchengladbach's three goals, and he was the primary creator for the team in this match. The midfielder has a good matchup looming against Freiburg. Although the club has gotten off to a strong start in 2026-27, Freiburg did concede 57 goals in last season's campaign.
Nets first Bundesliga goal
Bolin scored a goal while taking three shots (two on goal) and crossing twice inaccurately during Saturday's 4-0 win over Hoffenheim.
Analysis: Bolin found the back of the net in the 14th minute opening the scoring in the match while leading Gladbach in shots. It was the first Bundesliga goal for Bolin after joining the club in the winter transfer window. Bolin finishes the Bundesliga campaign with two goal involvements across 13 appearances.
Sets up goal in start
Bolin assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Mainz.
Analysis: Bolin registered both his first assist and his first goal in his 10th appearance since joining the club, having made four starts during that time. Across those four starts, he recorded two shots and created six chances.
