The situation of Serhou Guirassy at Borussia Dortmund has become one of the most discussed topics in Germany and has raised alarms at FC Barcelona, which closely monitors every move of the African striker. His internal conflict in Westphalia could open an unexpected opportunity for a club that has always valued the goal scorer, although his cost seemed unaffordable just a few months ago.

The Guinean forward, who arrived at Borussia Dortmund last summer after a phenomenal season at Stuttgart, is now experiencing challenging weeks. His relationship with Niko Kovac has strained, and his recent performance raises doubts that did not exist when he landed at Signal Iduna Park as the most efficient attacker of the previous season in Europe.

Serhou Guirassy enters the scene for FC Barcelona

As reported by Sport, Barça has been searching for a competitive striker to complement its project for a long time and is keeping an eye on Serhou Guirassy, aware that his profile fits what Hansi Flick is looking for. The German coach considers him an ideal forward for his mobility, his ability to create advantages, and his unstoppable instinct in the box, attributes that he has demonstrated abundantly in the Bundesliga.

The 1:1 rule remains a barrier, but the Barcelona board understands that a scenario of tension between player and club could lower the price. His release clause is around 50 million, a high figure for Barça's economy, but not impossible if the situation deteriorates further at Borussia Dortmund.

The past few weeks have been tumultuous. Serhou Guirassy reacted poorly when substituted against Bayer Leverkusen, even refusing to shake hands with Kovac. Days earlier, he had already argued with the coach over a penalty kick. Furthermore, his recent goal drought — three goals in ten matches — and his lack of connection with teammates have unsettled the locker room. This distancing was evident in the European clash against Villarreal, where he avoided joining the group celebrations.

A forward who gained unanimity in Europe

Despite this setback, Serhou Guirassy's numbers remain elite. His stats in 2023/24 were outstanding, and his start to the new campaign has also been noteworthy. That explains why LaLiga and Premier giants are keeping a close watch. Real Madrid, City, Liverpool, and Arsenal have already inquired about his situation.

The fact that FC Barcelona is on this list is not surprising. In the fall, German media hinted that Flick would approve his signing if the opportunity arose. His power, spatial awareness, and goal-scoring instinct align with a team in need of a forward capable of deciding matches.

An interest that reignites in LaLiga

Dortmund's unease has reignited Barça's radar. Every gesture, every match, and every statement by the Guinean is analyzed in a Barça-centric light. If the German club perceives that his continuation could cause internal strife, the exit route could accelerate.

Kovac confirmed that the player apologized for his behavior but made it clear that such attitudes "do not help." Between the lines, the coach sent an unequivocal message: if his attitude is not corrected, the consequences will be inevitable.

Meanwhile, Serhou Guirassy faces a decisive stretch. Dortmund needs results and stability, and their star striker must show whether he is committed to the project. Otherwise, the market will once again place him in the shop window.

In this scenario, FC Barcelona emerges as one of the potential beneficiaries. The Catalan club knows that the opportunity could be unique, and in a summer where offensive planning will be crucial, its name stands out prominently.

The outcome remains open, but everything indicates that Serhou Guirassy will be one of the protagonists of the upcoming market, with LaLiga and half of Europe waiting for the next chapter.
