Many people are already speculating about the 27-year-old’s future despite his stellar 2023–24 season, which has seen him score 18 goals and dish out two assists in 14 outings across all competitions.
Although Guirassy just moved from Rennes to Stuttgart on a permanent basis during the summer, his contract is thought to include a €17.5 million (£15.1 million) release clause.
The Guinea international is reportedly being courted by Manchester United, while Newcastle United is also rumored to be eager to lure him to the Premier League in January.

With Kehl disputing that talks about a mid-season transfer have taken place, BVB’s sports director has stated that the transfer rumors have ‘amused him’.
“There aren’t any negotiations going on right now. Not with the player, not with the club. That made me laugh a lot,” Kehl said to DAZN.
A January departure is now considered quite possible, since Guirassy is said to have turned down the opportunity to sign a new contract at Stuttgart that would have eliminated the release provision in his current agreement.
According to German journalist Christian Falk, Man United, Newcastle, and Dortmund are the three teams most eager to sign the striker when the season is halfway through.
Prior to finalizing a permanent transfer to the team during the summer transfer window, Guirassy scored 14 goals for Stuttgart during a loan stint the previous season.
The striker has made 42 appearances for the Reds overall, tallying 32 goals and dishing out four assists.
According to a recent report, Dortmund and Man United met last week to talk about a potential January trade that would involve Donyell Malen and Jadon Sancho.
In the same interview, Kehl clarified that this was untrue, saying, “At this time, there is no exchange deal discussed or any interest in any player.”
In addition to scoring twice in two German Cup games, Guirassy has 16 goals in 12 Bundesliga games this season.
