Last-minute scramble for Guirassy? Turkish enquiry stirs things up | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund is said to have received a surprising inquiry for Serhou Guirassy shortly before the transfer deadline. Despite inconsistent performances this season, the striker could suddenly become a topic on Deadline Day.

Yesterday’s brace in the 3-2 win against 1. FC Heidenheim was surely a balm for Serhou Guirassy’s soul. The 29-year-old has scored twelve goals in 30 appearances across all competitions, yet he has repeatedly faced criticism this season. In Dortmund, the focus for the number nine is not only on the bare numbers, but also on charisma, presence, and consistency—and in these areas, Guirassy has at times not always been convincing.

According to Turkish transfer insider Sercan Hamzaoğlu, Fenerbahçe has inquired with Borussia Dortmund regarding a possible transfer. The current terms are reportedly being reviewed. The twist: According to the report, a move for the BVB striker is tied to the departure of Youssef En-Nesyri. Only if the 28-year-old leaves the club could Fenerbahçe get serious in the race for Guirassy.

However, whether Fenerbahçe would have any realistic chances at all remains questionable. Guirassy continues to be a regular in Dortmund’s starting eleven, and finding an equivalent short-term replacement at the end of the transfer window would be almost impossible to organize. For this reason, a departure seems unlikely from BVB’s perspective—especially since sporting director Sebastian Kehl had recently ruled out any further transfers anyway.

All in all, the rumor fits more into the category of Deadline Day noise. Nevertheless, the report shows: Guirassy remains a name that sparks interest even during mixed phases—and Dortmund must at least listen to such inquiries.
