Serhou Guirassy: Centre-forward linked with big-money Fenerbahçe move in Türkiye

Serhou Guirassy is being linked with a surprise move from Borussia Dortmund to Fenerbahçe, with the potential transfer currently rated at a modest 16% probability according to data from Transfermarkt.

The 29-year-old centre-forward, who represents Guinea and also holds French nationality, is valued at €40.00m and remains under contract at Dortmund, with no formal agreement in place over a switch to Istanbul. Despite the low likelihood suggested by the reported percentage, Fenerbahçe are understood to be monitoring his situation closely as they look to add a high-profile goalscorer from the Bundesliga.

Guirassy only joined Dortmund from VfB Stuttgart ahead of the 2024-25 campaign after a prolific spell in Swabia, and his current market valuation has held steady around the €40m mark since late 2023, briefly peaking at €45m in mid-2025. That figure is seen as a benchmark in speculation over any potential fee, though with no contract expiry given in the data, observers have also floated the longer-term possibility of the striker running down his deal and becoming available as a free agent.

Born in Arles on 12 March 1996, the 1.87m right-footed forward has built a varied career across France and Germany. After emerging at Stade Lavallois, he moved through Lille, Auxerre, Köln and Amiens before his breakthrough years at Rennes and then Stuttgart, where his value climbed sharply from €10m to €40m on the back of prolific Bundesliga form. His experience in both Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga is thought to appeal to Fenerbahçe as they seek a proven goalscorer for the Süper Lig.

With Dortmund unlikely to let a key attacking option leave easily, much will depend on how Guirassy’s role evolves in the coming months. Should a move to Istanbul eventually materialise, it could mark the next major step in a career that has steadily climbed through Europe’s top leagues and further shape his reputation as one of African football’s leading centre-forwards.
