Serhou Guirassy: The return of the serial striker!

Serhou Guirassy on fire. On Tuesday, February 17, 2026, the Guinean striker guided Dortmund to a quiet 2-0 victory against Atalanta in the first leg of the Champions League play-offs. The 29-year-old player scored 1 goal and delivered 1 assist in this game, confirming his return to form.

Series of 6 goals on his last 4 games
Indeed, this achievement and this offering are only the extension of a state of grace for the former Rennais. In his last three Bundesliga matches, he scored a brace against Heidenheim (3-2), scored once against Wolfsburg (2-1) and planted another brace against Mainz (4-0). Result of the races, the Syli player scored 6 goals and delivered 1 assist on his last 4 outings with Dortmund.

This prolific series now allows Serhou Guirassy to score 16 goals and 4 assists in 33 matches in all competitions combined. A pace that could allow him to reach his total for the past fiscal year (34), which is his highest total in career. He can also aim for a 3rd consecutive season with at least 30 goals, knowing that before signing for Dortmund, he had 30 in 30 outings with Stuttgart in 2023-2024. In addition, since the start of last season, the Guinean is the most decisive player in C1, with 17 goals and 7 assists, or 24 contributions.

Forget the months of drought
High standards that strongly contrast with his form of the last months. Out of his 15 league outings between September 21, 2025 and January 24, 2026, Serhou Guirassy had found the net only 2 times for 2 assists. In the Champions League as well, the breakdown was identical, with 3 goals over the 8 days of the league phase. Some attackers can rely on these stats (in addition to 3 assists). Nevertheless, the top scorer of the past season in the Champions League (13 goals) has much higher standards.

2nd in the Bundesliga (51 points), 6 points behind Bayern Munich, leader, and on their way to a qualification for the 8th final of the Champions League, Dortmund will need a great Serhou Guirassy to achieve their goals.
