Manchester United and Tottenham must offer lucrative terms to sign Serhou Guirassy as the 27-year-old continues to attract massive interest.
According to Team Talk, Manchester United and Tottenham must make a sizeable offer on personal terms to sign Serhou Guirassy. The 27-year-old striker and his representatives are eager to make the best of this opportunity to sign for a top team, as the forward rejected the idea of extending his stay at Stuttgart.
Serhou Guirassy continues to make headlines with his massive links to top European clubs and the Premier League. AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund are keen to take the 27-year-old striker after a stunning start to his season with Stuttgart.
The Bundesliga side underestimated Guirassy’s overall value and included only a modest £15 million release clause, double what they paid to RC Lens. The 27-year-old striker has propelled to new heights with his prolific form for Stuttgart, scoring 16 times already this season.
Many teams are keen to pay that price and bring him on board. However, Guirassy and his representatives are eager to get the best out of the opportunity and land a fantastic deal in terms of wages. Some sides are capable of paying over the odds, which could eliminate teams outside the Premier League.
Guirassy has already rejected the idea of an extension with Stuttgart, which shows he intends to move on to a bigger club in January. So, for teams like Manchester United and Tottenham to sign the 27-year-old striker, they must offer lucrative terms for the forward.
West Ham are eager to sign him and had hoped to start negotiations to land him early. The increased interest from rivals could somewhat deflate their chances, but the Hammers are probably the only team here that can guarantee him regular game time.
Manchester United are also keen on the forward, as Erik ten Hag continues to look for a new option to complement Rasmus Hojlund. Hence, they might show an interest in January but may not look to overpay. Similarly, Tottenham might consider the striker, but a new frontman is not their priority.
The two clubs, alongside West Ham, could battle it out for the 27-year-old from Stuttgart. The German side are resigned to losing him for a big club and will rue their decision over that £15 million release clause. As for the forward and his representatives, they will want to make the best of this glorious opportunity, which may not come again in Guirassy’s career.
