Tottenham Hotspur have joined the race to sign Serhou Guirassy as they begin planning for a summer rebuild following a disappointing campaign.
They have already made contact with the Borussia Dortmund striker’s representatives and are seriously considering a move for him.
Tottenham’s interest comes at a time when they are looking to strengthen their attacking options and add a more reliable goal threat to their squad ahead of next season.
Guirassy has scored 17 goals in 38 appearances across all competitions this season.
The 30-year-old is under contract until 2028, which places Dortmund in a strong negotiating position if they decide to sell.
However, his situation is complicated by the structure of his release clause, which is reportedly set at €50 million but only applies to a select group of elite clubs.
That means Tottenham would need to negotiate a transfer fee directly with Dortmund rather than trigger the clause.
Interest in Guirassy is not limited to the Premier League, with AC Milan also closely monitoring his situation.
There had also been discussions about a possible move to Saudi Arabia, which had previously been viewed as a strong option for the player.
That possibility now appears less likely, increasing the chances that Guirassy will remain in European football.
Tottenham’s scouting department has already watched the striker multiple times in recent weeks, underlining the seriousness of their interest.
The club are keen to identify players who can make an immediate impact as they attempt to recover from a difficult season.
The situation presents both a sporting and financial decision for Dortmund.
They are looking to stabilise after a disappointing European exit, and a potential sale could help balance their finances.
However, Guirassy is one of their key attacking outlets, meaning any decision to sell would need to be carefully considered.
The striker’s performances in the closing weeks of the season could influence his valuation and the level of interest from competing clubs.
With multiple clubs involved, the pursuit of Guirassy is expected to develop into a competitive transfer battle as the summer window approaches.
