Arsenal clearly wants to sign another striker for the next campaign, particularly given their wish to keep Gabriel Jesus despite his injury history. Gabriel’s health worries force the Gunners to look at other offensive possibilities. They may want to sign Stuttgart’s outstanding 28-year-old Guinean attacker Serhou Guirassy during the summer transfer window.
According to WhoScored, Guirassy has been playing in the Bundesliga with an amazing record of 25 goals in 25 games this year. Not surprisingly, such prolificity has drawn interest from rival teams both locally and outside Europe, as has a release clause of only €17.5 million.
Arsenal would face fierce competition to sign Guirassy should they decide to pursue him. Strongholds of the Premier League, Manchester United and Newcastle United, have shown their support for the striker, while continental titans like Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, and AC Milan have also entered the race.
Arsenal Want To Sign Stuttgart’s Outstanding 28-year-old
Knowing that Guirassy’s main goal is to join a Champions League-playing Premier League team might offer Arsenal an advantage in the competition for his services. But the player is still open to continuing at Stuttgart, as long as there is a pay rise, especially considering that the team qualified for the top European competition the next season, mostly because of his goal-scoring success in 2023–24.
Getting Guirassy on board won’t be easy for Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. They have a good deal of groundwork to do, so moving quickly will be necessary if they want to get the striker. Guirassy is not only a practically certain provider of goals, but at his current price, he also delivers outstanding value.
Arsenal want to strengthen their offensive alternatives for the next campaign. Getting the Guinean striker to join will not be simple because of competition from both European giants and local competitors. But the Gunners find him appealing given their desire to bolster their team before the new season because of his exceptional goal-scoring record and low release clause.
What’s next?
Arsenal needs more firepower up front, hence pursuing Serhou Guirassy looks like a sensible decision. With Arsenal wanting to compete both domestically and in Europe, Guirassy’s outstanding goal-scoring record and comparatively modest release clause make him a desirable target. But with so much rivalry from other teams, obtaining his services will need quick thinking and action. Arsenal could have the steady goal threat they need to bolster their team and maybe increase their chances of winning the next season if they can get Guirassy.
Reiss Nelson is being watched by Crystal Palace as they try to improve their offense. Football Transfers notes that the club is displaying interest in signing the recent graduate of the Arsenal system during the next transfer window. Having played little at Arsenal, Nelson seems ready for a summer transfer. When Nelson joined Arsenal in 2007, he moved up the ranks quickly. At only 17 years old, he made his first team appearance. In 2019 he was promoted to Arsenal’s main team after a stellar loan spell at TSG Hoffenheim.
