West Ham United learn key factor to sign Stuttgart ace Serhou Guirassy, January transfer on cards
Winning the race for West Ham-linked Stuttgart ace Serhou Guirassy could come down to which club offers the best personal package, according to TEAMtalk.
The publication reported on its website on Thursday (14 December) that the striker is available in the January transfer window.
TEAMtalk added that Premier League clubs Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are also interested in the 27-year-old.
“Serhou Guirassy has caught the attention of half the Premier League, including Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United, but winning his signature could come down to which club offers the most attractive personal package, TEAMtalk can reveal.”
Time to get to work
Given the striker’s stunning form, the lengthy interest is unsurprising, with European powerhouses AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund seemingly also keen on his services.
And along with the aforementioned Premier League sides, Newcastle United, Fulham and Brentford are also eyeing the Bundesliga star.
Guirassy has been in phenomenal form this season, with the 27-year-old scoring 18 goals from his 14 matches in all competitions so far.
A total of 16 of those goals have come in just 12 Bundesliga matches, with the other two coming in two DFB-Pokal games.
There will undoubtedly be a battle for his services next month, and while Stuttgart will be doing their utmost to keep hold of him, it is likely that they will be unable to prevent him from making a switch to the English top-flight or another top club across Europe’s leading leagues.
With the futures of Michail Antonio, Danny Ings and Divin Mubama up in the air, the Hammers could certainly do with a new striker.
