Deal in sight: will Guirassy answer Fenerbahce Istanbul’s call? | OneFootball

Fenerbahce Istanbul is apparently stepping up its pursuit of Serhou Guirassy (30). The Turkish top club’s interest is nothing new, but Fener are now getting serious.

Guirassy’s contract with BVB still runs until 2028. Rumors of an early departure have been circulating for a long time. The Guinea international has already been linked with numerous clubs. But so far, the prolific striker is still wearing the black-and-yellow shirt, including on Saturday in Dortmund’s 2-1 friendly defeat at Fortuna Düsseldorf.

That could still change this summer, according to information from the Turkish daily Sabah. The report says Fenerbahce have already reached a basic agreement with both Borussia Dortmund and the Guinea national team striker. Dortmund’s asking price is said to be between €20 million and €25 million, to be paid in installments. That would clear the way for a move to the Süper Lig.

Fenerbahce president Aziz Yildirim (73) in particular is said to be pushing hard to sign his desired player. He is trying to lure Guirassy to the Bosporus with a hefty annual salary of €10 million. Negotiations with the player and his advisor are said to have gone positively.

The natural-born striker with a nose for goal has been playing for BVB since 2024. The Westphalians had pried the Guinea international away from VfB Stuttgart for €18 million. Since then, Guirassy has scored an impressive 60 goals in 96 appearances for Dortmund and also set up another 15.

Former Frankfurt forward Randal Kolo Muani (27), who has been mentioned as a possible replacement, apparently has no intention of returning to the Bundesliga. The French goal-getter is on the verge of moving from Paris Saint-Germain to Juventus Turin. Dortmund are also said to have looked into the 32-cap international (9 goals), but will likely miss out.
