Serhou Guirassy has scored 14 goals in eight games

And the Guinean international is the only player in those top five leagues this century, other than Cristiano Ronaldo, to score 14 goals so early on the term.
He has outscored the likes of Harry Kane, Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland who are widely regarded as the world’s best strikers.
But what makes Guirassy even more attractive is his release clause is worth just £15million and will be active in both winter and summer transfer windows, according to SkyDE.
And the forward has already caught the eye of some of the Premier League clubs.
