In-form VfB Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy has reportedly emerged as a target for Real Madrid ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Defensa Central, Serhou Guirassy is the subject of interest from Real Madrid. The Merengues are combing the market for strikers ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window. And the VfB Stuttgart attacker has emerged as a viable target amid his electric start this term with the Bundesliga club.
Serhou Guirassy spent most of his career thus far out of the spotlight while hardly being prolific. A graduate of the Stade Lavallois youth division, the Guinean international represented LOSC Lille, AJ Auxerre, Koln, Amiens SC, and Stade Rennais before finally finding his feet at VfB Stuttgart.
The 27-year-old joined the Bundesliga club on loan for the 2022/23 season before completing a permanent transfer this past summer. Guirassy’s move has worked out well for him, and he has started the new campaign strongly. The player has a remarkable tally of 14 goals and two assists in just eight appearances thus far this term.
Guirassy’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs. Recent reports have linked him with many Premier League outfits, including Tottenham Hotspur. But the in-form striker’s suitors now have to compete with Real Madrid for his signature.
Real Madrid will prioritise signing Kylian Mbappe in a Bosman move next summer. In addition, Endrick will arrive from Palmeiras before the 2024/25 season begins. But the Merengues are concerned that Mbappe will sign a new contract with Paris Saint-Germain. So, they are scouring the market for a striker ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window.
Recent reports have linked Los Blancos with Victor Boniface, Santiago Gimenez, and others. But VfB Stuttgart striker Guirassy is also a viable target for Real Madrid. Meanwhile, the report claims that the Bundesliga club might not demand a bomb to part ways with the in-form 27-year-old attacker.
So, a summer move might be on the cards for Guirassy if the Spanish giants come calling. It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid can land Mbappe or turn towards alternatives, with the VfB Stuttgart striker being one of the targets.
