Serhou Guirassy wants Premier League transfer
According to a report from Sky Sports, Amiens striker Serhou Guirassy, who has been linked with Tottenham in the recent past, has ambitions of playing in the Premier League.
The 24-year-old Guirassy joined Amiens in January 2019, signing from German Bundesliga outfit FC Koln. Prior to that, he has had spells with Stade Laval, LOSC Lille and AJ Auxerre.
Since joining the club, Guirassy has made 37 appearances, scoring 12 goals in the process. Nine of those came in the 2019/20 campaign. However, with Amiens getting relegated from the Ligue 1 in 2019/20, the striker is now angling for a move away from the club.
Valued at €18m by the club, Rennes are one of the clubs interested in signing Guirassy. But the 24-year-old Frenchman has ambitions of playing in the Premier League as per the report.
Tottenham are in the market for a new striker, having been left exposed by the shortage of options in the attacking department last season.
Beyond Harry Kane, manager Jose Mourinho has no other centre-forward that he can call upon, with the club loaning out academy graduate Troy Parrott.

Someone like Guirassy, who had a fairly decent campaign last time out for a struggling club, would be a handy backup option. More so, considering that he might be available for just €18m.
We have already brought in Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg from Southampton, while Joe Hart has signed up on a free transfer. However, there is still plenty of work to be done in the transfer market. Apart from a new striker, we also need reinforcements at right-back and centre-back.
