Sehrou Guirassy’s future seems increasingly uncertain, and as the prolific Guinean striker garners interest from European football heavyweights, Stuttgart is reportedly eyeing a replacement to fill the void.
With an impressive tally of 27 goals in 35 Bundesliga appearances, Guirassy has become a sought-after talent, drawing attention from prominent clubs such as Manchester United, Newcastle, AS Roma, and AC Milan.
As the transfer speculation intensifies, it appears that Stuttgart is proactively identifying a successor, with recent reports suggesting that Simon Banza, a former striker for RC Lens, is on the radar of the German team.
Currently plying his trade with Braga, the 24-year-old Congolese forward has been making waves in the Portuguese league, finding the back of the net 13 times in just 14 matches.
His prolific form has not gone unnoticed, and he is valued at an estimated 8 million euros, according to Transfermarkt.
Stuttgart, currently positioned fourth in the Bundesliga, is strategically planning for the potential departure of Guirassy and sees Banza as a compelling candidate to step into the striker’s role.
The club’s interest in the Congolese striker underscores the meticulous approach of football clubs in navigating the dynamic landscape of player transfers.
While discussions around Guirassy’s future continue to unfold, the prospect of Simon Banza joining Stuttgart adds an intriguing layer to the ongoing transfer saga.
As the January transfer window approaches, the footballing world eagerly awaits to see how these potential moves will reshape team dynamics and influence the landscape of European football.
Stuttgart have two new candidates should Serhou Guirassy leave: Braga’s 27-year-old striker Simon Banza, who has scored 13 goals in 14 league games this season and would cost €8-10m, as well as Torino’s Antonio Sanabria, who would rather come on loan, reports @_dennisbayer. pic.twitter.com/BQ74CzVUhN
