"The Catalan giants will surely soon need to think about replacing veteran front-man Lewandowski, who will turn 38 next season. It won't be easy to find someone who can slot in as well as the Poland international has, but Guirassy is one of Europe's most clinical finishers at the moment. The Guinea international has a superb record of 88 goals in his last 116 games for Dortmund and his former club Stuttgart."
"According to Fichajes, Barca are showing a strong interest in Guirassy, who has a special release clause worth 65m for certain big clubs. The report claims this would allow the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid to sign Guirassy for that 65m clause, but it's not clear which other clubs could also be in the frame here. Barcelona seem to have a strong interest, though, so it perhaps makes sense that Guirassy is being targeted as Lewandowski's successor."
Barcelona are lining up a transfer move for Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy as their preferred replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who will turn 38 next season. Guirassy has scored 88 goals in his last 116 games for Dortmund and Stuttgart, with seasonal tallies of 14 (2022/23), 30 (2023/24), 38 (2024/25) and six in eight matches so far in 2025/26. The Guinea international, now 29, is viewed as one of Europe’s most clinical finishers and has a €65m special release clause applicable to certain big clubs. Concerns include his age and lack of La Liga experience, while interest from other major teams could drive competition.
