"Serhou Guirassy is the 'favoured' option. Since 2019-20, he's racked up double figures for goals scored per season, and has reached peaks such as 30 goals for Stuttgart in 2023-24, or 38 last season, when he also played for Borussia Dortmund in the Club World Cup."
"He'll turn 30 in a couple of weeks, so he's not a long-term investment, but rather a player to try to win immediately. He's essentially an Adrien Rabiot for the attack. He's been at Dortmund for a year and a half and cost just €18m because of his Stuttgart release clause."
"His trophy cabinet is woefully empty, and he's realised that winning a trophy while playing in the same league as Bayern is extremely difficult. That's why the top scorer in last season's Champions League is ready to be seduced by the Rossoneri."
AC Milan's transfer plans were disrupted when Jean-Philippe Mateta's knee injury forced them to cancel an agreement with Crystal Palace. The club now seeks a Champions League-calibre striker, with Serhou Guirassy emerging as their favoured option. The 30-year-old has consistently scored double figures annually, including 38 goals last season with Borussia Dortmund. Though his release clause is €70m, Milan believes his desire for a new challenge and empty trophy cabinet make him open to negotiation. Guirassy's profile—featuring finishing, hold-up play, size, and movement—aligns perfectly with manager Allegri's tactical requirements. Milan has monitored him since his Stuttgart days and views him as an immediate-impact signing rather than a long-term investment.
