Is Guirassy's release clause set to activate early in January?

It was already leaked that Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy has a fixed release clause in his contract.

The supposed €50million release clause, meant to be available to selected top clubs, would only become valid next summer.

However, Mark Brus, editor-in-chief of CaughtOffside, reports that the clause could, however, take effect as early as January.

According to the article, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, and Arsenal are all considering a move for the BVB striker.

For clubs outside the elite bracket and not bound by the release clause, a fee of around €80million is reportedly in place 

Guirassy's brother and agent has already offered the striker to clubs in Saudi Arabia to explore the local market.

The Guinean has also been linked with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Liverpool but it remains to be seen whether this transfer saga will pick up steam in January.
