Minecraft.getInstance().player will return a ClientPlayerEntity, you can't get the ServerPlayer via Minecraft.getInstance().player

Which player. There is not just one player on a server.

I understand well I am trying to get the player that was picked by the event, and make him open a GUI.

do not use "@OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)"
and this is the worng way to do this.
whenever a screen is opened, this is prevented and your screen is opened
you also create an infinite cycle (StackOverflowError),
you create a container that triggers the event again

when exactly do you want to open a container?

GuiOpenEvent is fired on the client
