Guirassy responds to reported Bayern interest

Serhou Guirassy left VfB Stuttgart for Borussia Dortmund in the summer.

The Black and Yellows were far from the only club linked with the striker, and some reports suggested that Bayern Munich were also interested.

However, Guirassy insists that he was never approached by the Bavarians.

"I personally haven't received a phone call, but I've also heard that there was interest," Guirassy told Sport Bild.

“I've never had an offer from Bayern Munich, so the question doesn't even arise. I realized early on that I wanted to play for BVB,” he said of his decision to sign for Dortmund rather than Bayern.

Asked about reported interest from Chelsea and Arsenal, Guirassy replied:

“I like Germany, I like the Bundesliga. It's been the best stage for me in the last two years. BVB is an extremely exciting project, a fantastic club. I felt very comfortable at VfB, but everything is bigger and more exciting here. The coach also played a big part in my decision to join BVB.”
