Long-term Chelsea target Serhou Guirassy is reportedly intent on leaving Borussia Dortmund when the summer transfer window opens, with German outlet Bild stating the Guinea international has already decided he wants a new challenge beyond the German club.
According to the Bild report, Guirassy’s contract with Dortmund, which runs until 2028, includes a release clause of around €35 million, set to become active from July — providing a potential pathway for interested clubs to trigger a move.
The forward has emerged as one of Dortmund’s most important attacking players since joining the club, showcasing his goal-scoring ability in the Bundesliga. His form and physical presence have made him a highly regarded forward across Europe, with several clubs reported to be monitoring his situation.
In addition to the release clause detail, reports suggest that Guirassy’s brother and agent has been exploring various options on the market, keeping lines open with a number of potential suitors. European clubs from Italy and Turkey to Premier League sides have been linked — and while nothing is official yet, Guirassy’s preference to move on appears clear if the right offer arrives.
Interest from the Premier League has been rumored in past windows, with CHELSEA, Manchester United and others frequently mentioned in connection with the striker, especially given the affordability of his release clause relative to his output.
Borussia Dortmund, anticipating a summer of significant transfer activity, are reportedly already considering potential replacements as they brace for the possibility of losing their leading scorer.
Would Guirassy Be a Good Fit for Chelsea?
Guirassy’s finishing ability and aerial strength make him a natural centre-forward who can consistently score — an upgrade in pure goal output compared to some of Chelsea’s current options.
His robust build and hold-up play could offer tactical variety for Liam Rosenior, particularly against teams that sit deeper.
Guirassy’s game is more traditional striker-centric and could require adaptation to CHELSEA’ style. While prolific in bursts, Guirassy has also shown periods of inconsistency, which may raise questions over reliability across a full Premier League season.
