He has kept 60% of his attempts on target. However, Guirassy has to find a way to improve his link up play up top, based on his pass success rate of 70.2% in the German top tier (stats via <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/923f4dda\/Serhou-Guirassy\">fbref.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>His current contract at the German club will expire in the summer of 2028, which could make it tough for Man City to sign him on the cheap next year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_336976\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-336976\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Manchester City\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-2048x1364.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-631x420.jpg 631w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1261x840.jpg 1261w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1392x927.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1068x711.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/hamburger-sv-v-borussia-dortmund-bundesliga-1-1-1920x1279.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-336976\">HAMBURG, GERMANY \u2013 NOVEMBER 08: Serhou Guirassy of Borussia Dortmund is challenged by Nicolas Capaldo of Hamburger SV during the Bundesliga match between Hamburger SV and Borussia Dortmund at Volksparkstadion on November 08, 2025 in Hamburg, Germany.
