At the end of his contract at AC Milan next June, Olivier Giroud, 37, is determined to stay in Lombardy, even if it means waiting until the last minute for a sign from his current leaders.
Having just celebrated his 37th birthday, Olivier Giroud is always present during major meetings with AC Milan. The French international obviously scored the winning goal for Rossoneri against PSG (2-1), Tuesday in the Champions League, in a charged San Siro. He also had a nice double header against Napoli (2-2). Here he is with 7 achievements in all competitions. His best start to the season since his arrival in Lombardy.
If Fabrizio Romano, the Italian journalist extremely well informed about the transfer window, mentioned a possible departure of Giroud for the MLS, the 1.93 m center forward obviously has no intention of changing his tune while he is under contract until next June. According to Tuttosport Saturday, the 2018 world champion is determined to stay one more season: he is ready to wait for the end of his lease to receive a proposal from his managers.
Giroud intends to focus on the current season of the 2022 Italian champions and then on Euro 2024 with the France team, he the top scorer in the history of the Blues who will most certainly play his last international competition. And if all this goes as planned, the Isérois native (he grew up in the suburbs of Grenoble and was trained at GF38) will therefore still be playing at a high level in 2025.
