Fulham are reportedly showing an interest in Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy, who is also a potential target for Tottenham Hotspur.

Fulham are reportedly interested in signing Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy.

The Cottagers are still looking for a replacement for Aleksandar Mitrovic, who completed a £50m move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal in the summer.

Fulham boss Marco Silva can currently call upon Raul Jimenez, Carlos Vinicius and Rodrigo Muniz as his centre-forward options, but none of the trio have filled the void left by Mitrovic.

Jimenez has struggled since his summer move from Wolverhampton Wanderers, having failed to score in his first nine appearances for the club.

Vinicius, who has scored twice in five matches, has only been trusted with three starts in all competitions, while Muniz has made four of his five appearances from the bench.

With Fulham on the lookout for a new striker, the Evening Standard are reporting that the Cottagers are showing an interest in Guirassy.

The Guinea international has enjoyed an outstanding start to the Bundesliga season, scoring 14 goals in eight league matches.

As a result of his red-hot form, Guirassy tops the scoring charts in the German top flight, with a five-goal cushion over Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane.

Guirassy is also being monitored by a number of clubs, including current Premier League leaders Tottenham Hotspur.

The 27-year-old allegedly has a release clause in his contract, which can be activated in January and is believed to be less than €20m (£17.4m).

However, the Stuttgart man is reportedly determined to see out the remainder of the season with the Bundesliga side.

In addition to Guirassy, Fulham are believed to be considering a number of other targets, including Genk forward Gift Orban.

The West London club are also keeping tabs on Southampton's Carlos Alcaraz and Sporting Lisbon's Geny Catamo, although the latter primarily plays as a winger.
