CAN 2023 : With Serhou Guirassy, Guinea Aims to Make a Splash
After successfully qualifying for the quarterfinals in the 2021 edition, Guinea aims to go a step further in the Africa Cup of Nations, Ivory Coast 2023. Despite being drawn into a challenging group with Senegal, the reigning champions, Cameroon, former champions, and Gambia, the Guineans remain ambitious and will seek to progress beyond the group stages despite tough competition.
Key players such as Mohamed Bayo, Aguibou Camara, and Serhou Guirassy will be relied upon by coach Kaba Diawara to showcase individual brilliance as Guinea kicks off its AFCON campaign against Cameroon on Monday, January 15.
Serhou Guirassy is a renowned goal poacher and certainly a player to watch when it comes to scoring goals. He has scored 19 goals in 16 matches with Vfb Stuttgart in Germany. Although he is making his debut in the AFCON at the age of 27, Guirassy is very confident and will look to pose a serious threat to the Ivory Coast defenders.
One of his main attributes is his unique ability to finish with both feet, which will be a significant asset against some of the best defenders and goalkeepers on the continent.
