Stuttgart sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth insists the club want to keep striker Serhou Guirassy this month.
Guirassy has a release clause that is understood to be around €17million and has been linked with the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle after impressing for Stuttgart this season.
But despite Wohlgemuth insisting that Stuttgart want to keep the striker, he has not ruled out selling.
“Our strategy is not to hope, fear and keep our fingers crossed,” Stuttgart chief Fabian Wohlgemuth told BW24.
“It’s not wishful thinking .We are constantly in contact, and if matters align that are favorable, then we will do it. If not, then not.
“We will keep our eyes and ears open. We’re not under any pressure, but the squad situation is a bit tense at the moment.”
If you are one of those that are betting on transfers, at the moment it seems like Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Chelsea are the favorites for the striker.
