Leeds United Make Contact with Bundesliga Striker Ahead of Manchester United Clash

Leeds United have opened preliminary talks with VfB Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy as they look to strengthen their attacking line ahead of a fiery Premier League showdown against Manchester United this weekend.

According to well-placed sources at Elland Road, the club’s recruitment team made initial contact with the 28-year-old Guinean international’s representatives earlier this week. Guirassy, who has scored 17 goals and provided six assists in 24 Bundesliga appearances this season, has emerged as a prime target to solve Leeds’ long-standing problem of converting chances into points.

Manager Daniel Farke, whose side sit 11th in the table, is understood to have personally endorsed the move. Speaking after Tuesday’s training session, Farke hinted at squad evolution: “We’ve been clinical in patches but we need that consistent cutting edge. The right striker can change everything for us.”

The timing of the approach is no coincidence. Leeds host Manchester United at Elland Road on Sunday in what promises to be one of the most passionate fixtures of the season. United arrive buoyed by a recent upturn in form under their own new manager, making the game a must-win for both sides chasing European spots. A victory for Leeds would lift them into the top eight; defeat could see them dragged back toward the mid-table scrap.

Guirassy’s current deal at Stuttgart runs until 2026, but the club are open to offers above £25 million. The player himself has previously spoken of his desire to test himself in the Premier League, describing English football as “the most intense and exciting in the world.”

Leeds fans have reacted positively on social media, with many viewing the contact as evidence of genuine Premier League ambition rather than another window of window-dressing. Whether the deal materialises before the summer remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: as the Whites prepare to lock horns with their fierce rivals, they are already planning for the battles that lie beyond this weekend.
