Didier Deschamps, the coach of the Blues, invited Olivier Giroud to maintain his level to guarantee his place for the Euro in Germany.
Top scorer in the history of the Blues team, Olivier Giroud is however not guaranteed to play Euro 2024 in Germany. Indeed, Didier Deschamps, the coach of the France team, suggested that the AC Milan striker will have to continue to perform to keep his place.
“He maintains his very specific register even if without wanting to offend him he reached the high level later than others. But he is there through his performances with his club even if he is getting older too. He’s going to have a long season.”declared the French technician.
The old gunner had a difficult start to the season, disrupted by physical problems. But he has found the net again in recent weeks and has scored 8 goals in 15 matches in all competitions. “He had a more difficult start to the season hampered by physical problemsrecalled the Bayonnais. He scores goals again. He will also have to maintain this until the end of the season because he has competition. He also has an important background and experience. There is a need for players who have had experience. The first criterion is to maintain performance. He does it and quite well. This is his merit. »
For Giroud, the message is clear, he must continue to score goals and perform well to convince Deschamps to call him up for the Euro.
