Tottenham could sign Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy for a cut-price deal worth £15m
Tottenham Hotspur, following the departure of their talismanic striker Harry Kane to Bayern Munich, find themselves in a quest for a new attacking force. The departure of Kane left a void that the club had to address, and the latest name on their radar is Serhou Guirassy, the prolific striker from Stuttgart.
What sets Guirassy apart is not only his remarkable goal-scoring record but also his affordable price tag.
The 27-year-old striker has a release clause in his contract that stands at a mere £15m, making him an attractive prospect for a club seeking a goal-scoring machine without breaking the bank.
The football world is abuzz with interest in the Guinean striker, with scouts from various clubs monitoring his performances closely. Among those clubs showing interest are Tottenham, who are reportedly in the early stages of exploring a potential move for Guirassy. (h/t Express)
Guirassy to the Lilywhites?
Guirassy‘s rise to prominence has been nothing short of remarkable. Last season, he played a pivotal role in helping Stuttgart retain their place in the Bundesliga after finding themselves in the relegation playoffs. On loan at the club last term, he scored 14 goals across all competitions.
In just eight Bundesliga games this time around, he has already matched his total goal tally from last season, surpassing the likes of Robert Lewandowski to set a new record for the most goals in the first eight games of a Bundesliga season.
Guirassy’s prolific goal-scoring in Germany, coupled with his relatively modest transfer fee, has piqued the interest of both Tottenham and Fulham as well. The North London club sees the opportunity to bring in a striker who is outperforming Kane in Germany and can also be acquired for a fraction of the fee they received for the English captain.

As interest from various clubs continues to grow, the battle for Guirassy’s signature is sure to intensify, making this a transfer saga to watch closely.
