Dortmund sign Guinea forward Serhou Guirassy from Stuttgart

DORTMUND, July 18: Borussia Dortmund finally completed the signing of Guinea forward Serhou Guirassy from Bundesliga rival Stuttgart on Thursday after an injury-related delay.
Guirassy’s expected transfer was delayed when a medical examination revealed an injury sustained while playing for Guinea at the end of last season.
Dortmund said on Thursday the injury will “not require an operation” and “medical personnel expect him to be available later in the summer.”
The 28-year-old Guirassy joins on a four-year deal and will add a new dimension to Dortmund’s attack after it reached the Champions League final.
Guirassy’s 28 Bundesliga goals last season were second only to Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane and ensured plenty of interest in a player who reportedly had a release clause set well below his market value. Altogether, he scored 44 times in 58 games in two seasons for Stuttgart. (PTI)
