Milan striker Olivier Giroud was linked with a move to MLS during the summer transfer window, and the Frenchman has confirmed it is an option.
In an interview with La Gazzetta via Football Italia, the French striker said he would welcome competition from a younger striker at Milan, but is also considering his future at the moment. The key to a possible move for the ex-Chelsea striker is that it benefits his children, as he said any decision would be made with his family in mind first.
Giroud dreams of MLS
“I don’t know yet what will happen in the future. I know that I am happy in Milan and that we have done great things”he said. “It’s a great love story. The club and I have not yet discussed an extension, we will see and decide later. The most important thing is to stay focused on the team’s goals. »
Asked about a possible departure to the United States, the Frenchman replied: “THE MLS? There are also other countries. There will be other opportunities at the end of the season and I will decide. As a father and as a footballer.” Giroud, even at his age, would be an important player in MLS. If he joined the Championship this summer, he would be a top signing for any team in the league. However, it is questionable whether he will choose to partner with superstars Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in Miami.
