Report: Guirassy’s Dortmund Buyout Set to Drop Again in 2026, With Saudi Clubs Excluded
Barcelona are monitoring the situation as they assess options to succeed Robert Lewandowski.
Overview
- Sky Germany reporting indicates Serhou Guirassy’s release clause follows a staged structure that will reduce the fee again in 2026.
- The clause does not apply to Saudi clubs, giving European teams a clearer path while any Saudi bidder would need to negotiate with Dortmund.
- A previous selective clause worth roughly €65–70 million expired in the summer, with a similar clause expected to be valid next summer at a lower price.
- Guirassy remains under contract with Dortmund until 2028, and head coach Niko Kovac says the striker is focused and very important to the team.
- Since arriving from Stuttgart in 2024 for €18 million, Guirassy has produced 44 goals and 12 assists in 44 games and won last season’s Champions League top-scorer award.
