According to reports from Bild, the Bundesliga giants are keen to secure the 28-year-old’s transfer ahead of the new season and are preparing a lucrative package to entice him.
Guirassy, currently under contract with Stuttgart until 2026, has an exit clause in his contract that allows him to leave for a fixed transfer fee of 18 million euros.
Borussia Dortmund plan to activate this clause and offer Guirassy a significant salary increase.
His current earnings of 3.5 million euros per year at Stuttgart could rise to 8 million euros annually if he moves to Dortmund.
Additionally, the proposed deal includes a four-year contract and a substantial signing-on fee in the double-digit million range.
The urgency from Dortmund is driven by two key factors. Firstly, the club is aware of strong interest from other top European teams, including Atlético Madrid and AC Milan.
Secondly, securing a high-scoring forward is a critical objective for Dortmund this summer, following their quest to bolster their attacking options.
Guirassy has proven his worth with an impressive track record. After transferring from Stade Rennes to Stuttgart for 9 million euros in 2023, he had a standout season, scoring 30 goals and providing 3 assists in 30 games. His performance has not gone unnoticed and has made him a hot commodity in the transfer market.
Should Guirassy join Dortmund, he would be expected to compete with Niclas Füllkrug for the central striker role. This move also comes at a time when the futures of current Dortmund strikers Sébastien Haller and Youssoufa Moukoko remain uncertain.
The potential signing of Guirassy underscores Dortmund’s ambition to strengthen their squad and compete at the highest level in the upcoming season.
