Guirassy on verge of BVB exit? His agent now responds | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund must continue to deal with the questions surrounding Serhou Guirassy’s future. The BVB striker’s agent has now made a clear statement regarding the ongoing transfer rumors.

Speculation about Serhou Guirassy’s future shows no signs of stopping. Most recently, the Borussia Dortmund striker has repeatedly been linked with a move to Fenerbahce Istanbul. In some cases, there was even talk of an alleged agreement between the two parties. Now, Guirassy’s brother and agent, Karamba Guirassy, has commented on the rumors — and sent a clear message.

Speaking to Sky, he made it unmistakably clear: “No agreement of any kind has been reached. Serhou is currently reviewing his options for next season. Claims of an agreement are not true.” With that, Guirassy’s camp has contradicted reports from Turkey suggesting that a transfer to the traditional Istanbul club was already well advanced.

What is clear, however, is that the striker’s future still appears to be open. The fact that the 30-year-old is exploring different options for the coming season suggests that a departure from Dortmund is at least not unlikely. In addition to Fenerbahce, several European clubs are said to be closely monitoring the Guinea international’s situation. Among those mentioned as interested are Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur, and Atlético Madrid.

BVB squad rebuild could favor a Guirassy transfer

At BVB, however, they would like to keep Guirassy. Just recently, sporting managing director Lars Ricken emphasized: “We also have no intention of letting him go. He has impressively demonstrated his value to Borussia Dortmund over the past two seasons.” That assessment is no coincidence. Since moving to Dortmund, Guirassy has developed into one of the Black and Yellows’ most important attacking players. In 96 competitive appearances so far, he has scored 60 goals and set up another 15.

Even so, a transfer could be interesting for both sides. Dortmund need financial resources for their planned squad rebuild, while Guirassy apparently remains open to a new challenge. According to reports, the striker has a release clause that applies to selected top clubs and is believed to be in the region of €35 to €40 million.

A quick decision is not expected, however. As BILD recently reported, Guirassy wants to deal with his future definitively only after the World Cup. Until then, the race for the striker remains wide open.
