Chelsea has been alerted to the impressive form of Stuttgart’s standout performer, Serhou Guirassy.
At 27 years old, Guirassy has been in exceptional form lately, tallying an impressive 16 goals across just 12 league matches this season in the Bundesliga. Remarkably, this surpasses the goal tally of Premier League star Erling Haaland from Manchester City, who has managed 14 goals.
TEAMtalk suggests that Chelsea, along with Manchester United and Arsenal, have been informed about Guirassy’s potential availability. His contract reportedly includes a release clause of £15 million, making him an enticing prospect for multiple clubs. Other teams showing interest include Tottenham, West Ham, Newcastle United, Fulham, and Brentford.
While Guirassy’s form makes the investment appear attractive for any club, Chelsea might not see him as the ideal target. The Blues require a striker capable of consistently scoring 20 or more goals each season as their primary No. 9.
Observing Guirassy’s continued success for at least another season would be necessary before considering him a viable solution to Chelsea’s striking issues at Stamford Bridge. Ideally, the club is seeking a proven, high-profile striker with a track record of consistent goal-scoring across multiple seasons.
For Chelsea, the 24-year-old Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen, has emerged as a preferred choice. He has showcased significant improvement in recent years, making him a potential signing target for Chelsea, as reported by 90min, in their quest to reinforce their attacking options next summer.
