With affordable strikers proving hard to find this summer, BILD state both Arsenal and Chelsea have voiced their interest in Guirassy, whose return of 28 goals in the Bundesliga last season was bettered only by a certain Harry Kane.
The London rivals were both keen on another Bundesliga hotshot, RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko, but failed to convince the 21-year-old to move to England before he signed a new contract.
The Premier League giants are said to be two of only four sides competing for Guirassy's signature, alongside AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund.
What makes Guirassy so appealing is his bargain release clause, which is understood to be in the region of £17m.
While Guirassy is happy at Stuttgart, there is an acceptance from everyone involved that the 28-year-old has outgrown his current club, with the finances on offer from his four suitors far too great to turn down.
Chelsea are long-time admirers of Guirassy and tracked the Guinea international during his time in France, even rejecting the chance to move to Stamford Bridge in 2020 shortly before he left Amiens for Rennes.
As was the case in 2020, Guirassy wants to be a regular starter for whichever club he joins, which saw him block interest from Bayern Munich earlier in the summer.
He is keen to find a resolution on his future before the end of June, with interested suitors expected to formalise their interest in the coming days.
In other news, Chelsea won’t let Levi Colwill go. But it is understood that Colwill would be open to joining Bayern Munich as soon as the interest becomes concrete!
The potential transfer fees are currently far too high for Bayern.
