BVB strengthens its arsenal as it announced to Serhou Guirassy

The 28-year-old had an impressive season last year and finished second of top scorers list in Bundesliga last season

Borussia Dortmund looking to strengthen their attacking line ahead of the new season have signed Guinean centre-forward Serhou Guirassy. The footballer who until recently belonged to Stuttgart and in the season that ended had occupied the second place in the table of scorers of the Bundesliga with 28 goals (in 28 games) signed a 4-year contract on Thursday (18/7). He is the second Stuttgart player to join Borussia Dortmund this month after defender Valdemar Anton.

The 28-year-old Guirassy had an impressive season last year and finished second behind England's Harry Kane among the scorers with 8 goals less than the Bayern Munich forward.

"Every child who cares about football in the world knows this club, knows the black and yellow shirts, knows the yellow wall. I'm very excited about all of this," Guirassy said, adding: "I came here to win titles, that's what drives me."

Dortmund chief executive Lars Rieken said Guirassy's skills go beyond scoring: "As a striker, of course he will be judged by his goals, the role he plays in...chasing opponents clearly shows that he defines himself as a true team player," he said.

Borussia Dortmund, who reached the UEFA Champions League final last season (losing 2-0 to Real Madrid), begin their German league campaign against Eintracht Frankfurt on August 24. And Guirassy is expected to help them with all the forces.

Mikel Arteta thinks back to 1985 and tries to shield Arsenal as much as possible

Por Manos Staramopoulos • 16 de abril de 2025

Arsenal failed to maintain the euphoric atmosphere that existed after the imposing 3-0 win over Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. Their tank was almost... empty, stuck at 1-1 against Brentford, and now Mikel Arteta's team seems to be raising the white flag in the championship battle!. Now Arsenal is turning its attention exclusively to the Champions League, where after the 3-0 win, it seems to have a big lead to qualify for the semi-finals of the top club competition in Europe, if not the world.
