The figure of Serhou Guirassy is once again in the spotlight in the football scene. At 29 years old, the Borussia Dortmund forward is having an outstanding start to the season, sparking discussions about his future in the top offices of Europe.
A special clause for Real Madrid and Barcelona
Guirassy has a contract with Borussia Dortmund until June 30, 2028, with a market value of around 45 million euros, as reported by the main specialized portals. However, his general release clause amounts to 100 million.
Interestingly, as pointed out by DefensaCentral, the player requested to include a special clause for Real Madrid and FC Barcelona: only 65 million euros. A significantly lower amount than the standard clause that could facilitate a transfer if either of these giants decides to make a move.
Borussia Dortmund would not be opposed to a major sale but is not willing to give him away. They are aware that despite his excellent performance, his age limits the possibility of obtaining astronomical figures.
Real Madrid does not consider him
Although on paper Real Madrid has a direct path to sign the Guinean attacker, the club does not value that option. The forward line is fully covered with Gonzalo García, Endrick, and Kylian Mbappé.
The focus of the sporting direction is on reinforcing other areas of the field, especially the midfield and defense, where Carlo Ancelotti believes future replacements will be needed.
Therefore, despite Guirassy being a top-level scorer, he does not fit into the current plans of the Madrid team. His incorporation is not ruled out in the future, but today, it is not among the priorities of the Madrid entity.
Elite performance with Borussia Dortmund
The season kickoff for Serhou Guirassy has been spectacular. In the Bundesliga, he has scored 4 goals and provided 1 assist in just five matches. He has also scored in the German Cup and has 1 goal and 2 assists in only two Champions League games.
In total, the forward has tallied 6 goals and 3 assists in 8 official matches, demonstrating his consistency and importance in Borussia Dortmund's offensive scheme.
The German club considers him a key pillar and understands that replacing him would be extremely difficult. Guirassy combines power, experience, and a great ability to pose a threat even outside the box. His presence is intimidating, and his performance has been decisive in high-level matches.
Barcelona, monitoring his situation
On the other hand, FC Barcelona is keeping an eye on him. The sports management led by Deco is analyzing various options to strengthen the attack, and Guirassy's profile fits perfectly with the need for an experienced goal-scoring forward.
His special clause of 65 million could be an opportunity if the Blaugrana club manages to free up salary space and balance the books in the next transfer window.
However, at Camp Nou, they are aware that his age and the total cost of the operation could be significant obstacles, so it remains a secondary but interesting option.
Guirassy, a proven reliable forward
The Franco-Guinean forward has shown that he is one of the most consistent attackers in the Bundesliga. His time at Stuttgart already demonstrated his star quality, and now, in Dortmund, he is confirming that he can lead the attack of a Champions League team with authority.
His consistency, goal-scoring instinct, and commitment have made him one of the most respected players in the German championship.
An open future
Serhou Guirassy is at a critical point in his career. He knows that his numbers place him among the best scorers at the moment but is also aware that his age limits opportunities for a major transfer.
Borussia Dortmund will not let him go easily, Real Madrid has no place for him, and FC Barcelona is cautiously considering him. Nevertheless, the forward continues to do what he does best: scoring goals and forcing everyone to reconsider his name on the list of potential signings for next summer.
