Man United Step Up Guirassy Pursuit as €50m ‘Elite‑Only’ Clause Sets Up January Race

Reports point to a January release clause restricted to a select group of clubs, leaving bidder eligibility unclear.

Overview

  • Manchester United are reported to be ready to meet the €50m price for the Borussia Dortmund striker in the winter window.
  • Arsenal are said to be weighing a move at around £44m, with PSG also monitoring the situation.
  • Liverpool are linked again, though coverage notes it is not confirmed whether they are among the clubs able to trigger the clause.
  • The clause is described as accessible only to an unspecified elite group, creating uncertainty over who can act or whether any bids exist.
  • Guirassy’s profile remains strong, with 45 goals in 65 Dortmund games and a 2025 Ballon d’Or shortlist spot, plus a contract running to 2028.
