DONE DEAL: Spurs sign £17.5m prolific Bundesliga hitman amidst Champions League offer – Journo backs

In the lead-up to the impending summer transfer window, Tottenham Hotspur has been connected to a number of strikers; of them, Serhou Guirassy is one who would be a good deal.

In order to cover the vacuum left by the departure of England international Harry Kane from the team last summer, the North Londoners are in desperate need of a new striker. Last season, Spurs managed to succeed without Bayern Munich’s number nine, as Ange Postecoglou supported Richarlison in leading the Lilywhites to victory.

When the Brazilian was on the field, he was a major source of mayhem, but the Spurs supporters were extremely frustrated with his ongoing injury worries. This summer, Richy is rumored to be leaving N17, which frees up two striker spots for Tottenham.

Goal machine on a budget?

Speaking on the most recent episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior writer Pete O’Rourke notes that Guirassy would be a value-for-money addition because of the £17.5 million release clause in his deal with the German team. Due to his incredible season-ending goal total of 30 goals in 30 games, the French-born striker has been linked to several European teams.

In addition, Pete O’Rourke asserts that his present employers are using “every possible effort” to retain the Guinea international, whose contract expires in 2026. Stuttgart’s Champions League qualification may make the 28-year-old want to remain at Stuttgart Arena.
