Guirassy nets debut goal: set to earn up to €11 million at Dortmund | OneFootball

Serhou Guirassy did not score on Tuesday evening, partly because Ramy Bensebaini was given preference as the penalty taker, but the main striker for Borussia Dortmund assisted Karim Adeyemi's opening goal in the 4-4 draw against Juventus Turin and was a constant source of disruption, keeping the Italian defense on their toes. Guirassy's value to BVB is undisputed, regardless of individual games, and can also be seen in the salary of the center forward now revealed by "Sport Bild."

According to the publication, the forward, who joined Dortmund from VfB Stuttgart in the summer of 2024, receives a base salary of around nine million euros per year, which can significantly increase through various bonuses. For each point in the Bundesliga and the Champions League, an additional 15,000 euros is added, provided Guirassy played the entire or nearly the entire match. For partial appearances, the bonuses are slightly lower. Since Guirassy was on the field for almost 90 minutes in most games last season, point bonuses amounted to slightly more than one million euros.

Goal and Title Bonuses Possible

Guirassy's contract also includes an individual bonus of 250,000 euros, which is paid out upon reaching 20 goals and assists. Since the 29-year-old scored 21 goals in the Bundesliga alone in the 2024/25 season and was the top scorer in the Champions League alongside Barcelona's Raphinha with 13 goals, the required mark was easily achieved.

Guirassy can also benefit from bonuses initially paid to the entire team and then distributed. Such special payments are available in the Champions League from the quarter-finals onwards, as well as for other major successes like the championship or cup victory. In 2023, when the championship title slipped away on the last matchday, the team would have received a bonus of six million euros, of which about 350,000 euros would have gone to each regular player.

If BVB as a whole and Guirassy personally are successful, the striker can earn around eleven million euros per season overall – making him one of the top earners.
