Manchester United are reportedly lining up a Serhou Guirassy transfer as a backup plan if their pursuit of Benjamin Sesko fails.
The Red Devils are pushing hard to land the highly-rated Slovenian forward — but financial constraints following the big-money arrivals of Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha may force them to explore smarter alternatives.
Enter Serhou Guirassy: the Bundesliga powerhouse who quietly outscored Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe, and Harry Kane in the Champions League last season.
🔥 Why Guirassy Should Be United’s Next Striker
At 29 years old, Guirassy isn’t the typical marquee name making headlines. But his stats speak louder than hype:
- 13 goals in 14 Champions League matches — more than any other player
- 21 Bundesliga goals in 30 appearances
- 4 goals in 5 Club World Cup games

With blistering pace, composure in front of goal, and the ability to perform on big European nights, Guirassy could be the lethal finisher United’s front line needs.
🔍 Where Are the Rivals?
Surprisingly, transfer interest in Guirassy has been minimal. A brief link to PSG earlier this year — as a potential replacement for Randal Kolo Muani — has gone quiet.
That’s great news for Manchester United.
No bidding war. No inflated price. Just a proven goalscorer waiting for the right call.

⚽ Fit for Amorim’s Attack
Under new manager Rúben Amorim, United are reshaping their attack with Cunha, Mbeumo, and potentially a dynamic number nine. Guirassy’s explosiveness and eye for goal make him an ideal addition to this evolving frontline.
If the Sesko deal collapses, United shouldn’t hesitate — Guirassy is more than just a Plan B. He’s a game-changer.
