Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal all hold the option to activate that exit clause. None of those clubs have made a formal move as yet, but BVB‘s concern is real given the striker’s stated intention to move on.
Beyond those elite clubs, AC Milan, Tottenham Hotspur, and Fenerbahce have also registered interest in Guirassy. Those parties, lacking the contractual leverage of the release clause, would be required to negotiate a transfer fee directly with Dortmund.
The clause structure creates a clear hierarchy among the suitors. Clubs outside the named group face a harder path to signing the striker, giving BVB at least some control over any deal that falls outside the trigger mechanism. Whether any of the eligible clubs converts their position into a formal offer will define how this situation unfolds across the transfer window.
