Serhou Guirassy: Football Profile, Guinea Caps and Net Worth

Serhou Guirassy is a striker for Guinea, born in Arles, France, on 12 March 1996. He joined Borussia Dortmund on 18 July 2024, signing a contract through June 2028. Guirassy's Guinea debut on 25 March 2022 against South Africa gives soccer readers there a direct link to his international story; supporters in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Uganda can follow his caps and goals through the international records module.

Afrik-foot (2024) and Heidelberg24 (2025) give different salary estimates but no verified net worth figure. Those distinctions matter as much as the goals when searching his name. The career story runs from Laval to Dortmund, with Stuttgart providing the breakthrough that changed his standing among European strikers. For African readers, his Champions League scoring achievement belongs beside the Guinea shirt, rather than being treated as a separate story.

Who Is Serhou Guirassy?

Serhou Yadaly Guirassy is a Guinean centre forward whose birthplace and international allegiance tell different parts of his family story. He was born in France to Guinean parents and chose Guinea for his senior international career. His full name and the shorter Guirassy identify the same player. Born in March 1996, he turned 30 in March 2026; the birth date is the useful reference when an age displayed elsewhere changes.

His Dortmund move in July 2024 followed an exceptional Bundesliga season with Stuttgart and several years of senior football. That longer route helps explain why his profile interests readers beyond Germany. Among African footballers, he provides a strong example of a striker reaching a major scoring milestone after several changes of club. The club module supplies his updated registration details, while the dated move explains how the Dortmund chapter began.

The Road to Dortmund: Clubs, Transfers and Reported Fees

Guirassy began his senior career with Laval in 2013, before moving to Lille in 2015 and joining Auxerre on loan in 2016. Laval was the starting point for the senior record, while Auxerre offered another opportunity to develop through competitive matches. Wikipedia records that sequence without establishing a reported fee for either the Lille transfer or the Auxerre loan. A missing fee should remain unfilled rather than become an invented valuation.

He moved to Köln in 2016, beginning his first spell in German football. The career record then takes him to Amiens in 2019-20. His honours include Köln's 2018/19 second division championship, a reminder that a player's career can include contributions across different stages of a club's campaign. Wikipedia does not establish a reported fee for either the Köln move or the Amiens transfer.

Rennes signed Guirassy in 2020, and Stuttgart brought him back to Germany on loan in 2022. Stuttgart made that move permanent on 31 May 2023. These were separate decisions: the loan opened the opportunity, and the permanent transfer preceded his outstanding 2023/24 scoring season. Wikipedia records those moves without establishing fees for the Rennes transfer, Stuttgart loan or permanent Stuttgart signing, so the chronology carries more certainty than the financial detail.

Dortmund signed him on 18 July 2024 for a reported €18 million, with a contract running to June 2028. Afrik-foot had reported a €17.5 million release clause in May 2024, before the transfer was completed. Those figures describe different reports at different dates and should retain that context. Neither represents money paid into the player's personal savings: a transfer fee concerns the transaction between clubs, while wages and any signing payment are separate parts of the agreement.

What Does Guirassy Do on the Pitch?

Guirassy plays through the centre of the attack, where movement into scoring positions gives his finishing its value. His defining Bundesliga evidence came with Stuttgart in 2023/24: 28 goals in 28 league appearances, a club record, with only Harry Kane ahead in the scoring chart. He also scored 13 times in his opening seven league appearances that season. Those dated achievements show what he produced during his breakthrough campaign.

The performance to remember is his hat-trick against Barcelona on 15 April 2025, when Dortmund won three goals to one in the Champions League. A hat-trick against that opposition gives the broader scoring record a match that supporters can immediately place. Across the completed 2024/25 competition, he scored 13 goals in 14 appearances, setting Dortmund's record for a single campaign and sharing the scoring lead with Raphinha. His three goals against Barcelona were a memorable contribution to that completed European campaign.

For African supporters, the historical comparison is George Weah, who topped the Champions League scoring list in 1994/95. Guirassy became the second African player to do so in 2024/25, putting Guinea into a conversation that reaches well beyond the Bundesliga. He also shared the 2025 Club World Cup scoring award with four goals. For a Nigerian reader comparing him with Super Eagles forwards, these completed competition benchmarks offer a broader basis for comparison than one evening's highlights.

Guirassy and Guinea: Debut, Caps and AFCON

Guirassy made his Guinea debut against South Africa on 25 March 2022, in a friendly that finished goalless. That gives Bafana Bafana supporters a direct connection to the beginning of his senior international career. The international records module provides his updated caps and goals, with its update date indicating when the figures were refreshed.

Guirassy was born in France to Guinean parents and chose Guinea for his senior international career. His French birthplace does not alter the family connection behind his decision to represent Guinea. For readers in Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and Uganda, that background explains his connection to the Syli Nationale.

He was selected for Guinea's squad at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast. Guinea's qualifying campaign for the 2025 tournament fell short of the finals, their first miss since 2017, and Guirassy's six goals made him the second highest scorer in the competition. The practical football lesson is that an individual scoring contribution and a team's qualification outcome measure different things: progress depends on the results collected across the qualifying programme.

Serhou Guirassy net worth

Afrik-foot (2024) and Heidelberg24 (2025) report salary estimates without establishing Serhou Guirassy's net worth, so any circulating total should be treated as an unofficial estimate. Net worth requires evidence about assets and financial commitments, which a salary report alone cannot establish. Without a substantiated wealth figure for Guirassy, currency conversions for Nigerian, Kenyan, South African, Ghanaian and Ugandan readers lack a reliable starting amount. Adding local currencies would make an unsupported figure look more precise without improving its basis.

Afrik-foot reported on 26 May 2024 that Dortmund's proposed offer was about €5 million annually through June 2028, citing journalist Nicolò Schira. Its report also described a substantial signing bonus without publishing an amount. This was reporting before the completed July transfer, so it should be read as an account of the proposed package at that stage. The undisclosed bonus cannot be added to a personal wealth calculation or presented as a known payment.

Heidelberg24 reported on 20 September 2025, citing Sport Bild, that his base salary was about €9 million annually, potentially reaching about €11 million with bonuses. That later report differs materially from the May 2024 proposal. Both figures need their outlet, date and context attached; neither is an audited account. Readers searching for Guirassy salary per week should also distinguish a base wage from a possible maximum, rather than divide a bonus ceiling and present it as routine weekly pay.

Afrik-foot (2024) and Heidelberg24 (2025) do not establish supported figures for image rights, endorsements or market value. The reported €18 million Dortmund transfer fee is a historical transaction, not a statement of his personal wealth or a later market valuation. Guirassy's wages measure income within a specified timeframe; assessing his wealth would require a separate calculation of assets minus liabilities. Keeping those categories separate gives readers a more useful answer than combining fees, wages and unreported commercial income.

How to Watch Guirassy From Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana and Uganda

Use the fixture and broadcaster listings for the specific Dortmund or Guinea match, checking the competition and your country together. Bundesliga rights, Champions League rights and international coverage can differ, so one subscription should not be assumed to cover every appearance. In Nigeria, check the Nigeria listing; in Kenya, check Kenya; and in South Africa, use the South Africa entry. The same check applies separately to Ghana and Uganda before paying for access.

For Guirassy's fixtures, compare all four kick-off zones: WAT for Nigeria, EAT for viewers in Kenya and Uganda, SAST for South Africa, and GMT for Ghana. Read the local time beside the scheduled date in the fixture module. European clock changes can alter how an evening match fits an African viewing schedule. Confirm the time attached to the Dortmund or Guinea fixture before making viewing arrangements.

For Dortmund, distinguish the competition before reading his appearances or goals in the records module. For Guinea, distinguish friendlies from tournament and qualifying matches when comparing his international contribution. The lineup module establishes whether he starts or is named among the substitutes once teams are announced. Before settling into a viewing centre in Lagos or arranging a screen elsewhere, confirm the match, local kick-off and country specific coverage in that order.
