Borussia Dortmund are set to complete the signing of Serhou Guirassy from VfB Stuttgart, with the striker arriving to complete the move.
The Black and Yellows have triggered an €18 million release clause in Guirassy's contract with Stuttgart in order to sign him. In reality, however, he's likely to cost a lot more than that.
That's according to Sport Bild, who reports that Dortmund will pay an additional €15 million to bring the forward to the Signal Iduna Park.
Guirassy will receive €10 million of that as a sign-on fee, while consultants involved in the deal will receive €5 million.
The 28-year-old was in excellent form for Stuttgart last season, scoring 28 goals in 28 Bundesliga games, and Dortmund will be hoping for more of the same from the striker.
