French international Olivier Giroud can count on one of his biggest fans on the Italian side to promote his work during the 2018 World Cup.

Dusan Vlahovic is having a satisfactory third season at Juventus Turin. Even if he recently denied the rumors associating him with Paris Saint-Germain, the Serbian striker did not hesitate to express his admiration for the Parisian star, Kylian Mbappé, and his teammate in Blues, Olivier Giroud.

Concerning Mbappé, Vlahovic was full of praise. “Mbappé is so strong, right now he’s the best in the world. He’s 25 years old and he’s won almost everything, he’s scored forty goals this season, it’s huge. he declared for The Team.

Giroud the needy

The former Fiorentina member underlined the importance of Giroud, criticized for his inability to score during the 2018 World Cup. “Statistics are taking up more and more space, but they don’t tell you the importance of a player. At the 2018 World Cup, France wins, the stats say Giroud scored zero goals. But if he is not there, France does not win”explains Vlahovic.

“He was irreplaceable in this team, with all the dirty work he did, the passes, his way of weighing on defenses, he was one of the fundamental players in this victory,” concluded the man with 17 goals and assists in 32 matches this season.
