A priori, Olivier Giroud does not intend to return to the French team. The Lille player has repeated it in recent weeks despite his very good start to the season with LOSC. However, he confided this Thursday on RMC that he would certainly not refuse a summons if Didier Deschamps had no other choice.
“I don't want to come back, I received a great tribute. If the motherland calls me back? It would really take a huge massacre to remember me (laughs). There, five attackers are missing and the coach is not calling me. He understood that I had turned the page. Now, if during a match or a rally, there is a need to help out, it is not my style to refuse a selection, even if I have announced my retirement. As a favor, I could do it. If the coach calls me because I know the USA (in relation to the World Cup)? We can discuss it, but we are not there yet.»
