Juventus market, a very ambitious target moves away
Serhou Guirassy is getting farther and farther away from Italy, where he has been approached by AC Milan and more recently by Juventus, but also by Spain, with Barcelona putting him on the list of players capable of replacing Robert Lewandowski. Borussia Dortmund received a 70 million euro offer for, a clear signal of how much the Guinean center forward has become one of the most sought-after names in the upcoming summer market. At 29 years old, he is living one of the best moments of his career and his performances have not gone unnoticed by the big clubs, although all indications are that his future could be far from Europe, with Saudi Arabia ready to move decisively.
After an outstanding season at Stuttgart, which ended with 28 goals in the Bundesliga, Guirassy also confirmed his level at Borussia Dortmund. The impact was immediate. In his first year he put together 21 goals in the league and 13 in the Champions League, numbers that put him among the continent’s most reliable bombers. In the current season he has already scored nine goals in 17 games, maintaining a continuity that the German club considers crucial to the project.
The strong Saudi interest translates into a giant economic proposal and a complicated figure to refuse for a club like Dortmund, especially knowing that the player’s value could start to drop as he gets older. Guirassy’s profile fits fully into the strategy of the Saudi clubs, which focus on established players in Europe to raise the competitive level of their league and increase its global visibility. It would also be an opportunity for the striker to sign a very rich contract, a factor that could weigh in the final decision.
In Dortmund the situation is seen as a real crossroads. Giving up their offensive reference would mean losing a key piece of the team. At the same time, a 70 million revenue for a 29-year-old player represents an opportunity that is hard to ignore, at a time when the club could reinvest in younger, more futuristic profiles. A complex choice also opens up for Guirassy. He still has the level to stay at the top in Europe, but the idea of a big contract and a new experience in Saudi Arabia could mark the final phase of his career. All signs point to a decisive summer for his future, with his name destined to be among the most talked about in the market.
