AC Milan have set their sights on prolific Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy with the intention of making a significant move during the January transfer window. The Guinean attacker has proven to be an unstoppable force in the Bundesliga in the first half of the season, scoring 16 goals in just 11 appearances in the German league.
Guirassy, ​​​​currently on an impressive winning streak, is averaging 1.83 goals per 90 minutes played in the Bundesliga, putting him just two goals behind Bayern Munich captain Harry Kane in the race for Europe’s Golden Boot. With a €17 million release clause in his contract that comes into effect in January, the 27-year-old striker has become a hot target in the transfer market, according to CalcioMercato.
Serhou Guirassy, ​​​​the wish of half of Europe
Despite his excellent performances in the Bundesliga, it is believed that Guirassy could choose to stay in Stuttgart until the end of the season. However, with interest growing from teams across Europe, the January window could represent the perfect opportunity for a ‘big’ career move.
AC Milan is not alone in the race for Guirassy, ​​as Roma and Premier League clubs Newcastle and Manchester United have also expressed interest. However, Milan would like to strengthen their offensive line and find a long-term alternative for Olivier Giroud, the team’s current number 9.
With information from Calciomercato.com suggesting AC Milan are pushing for Guirassy, ​​the January transfer window is being portrayed as a key moment for a potential takeover that could add extra impetus to the Milan team’s attack.
