At the end of the draw for the group stage of Euro 2024, Olivier Giroud spoke about his future in Blue.
The French team now knows what to expect. The draw for the group stage of Euro 2024 in Germany, which took place on Saturday in Hamburg, reserved a complicated group for the Blues, who find themselves with Austria, the Netherlands as well as a play-off from route A (Poland, Estonia, Finland or Wales).
Passing on the airwaves of RMC after the draw, Olivier Giroud confided about his future in Blue. The 37-year-old AC Milan striker has hinted that he could retire internationally if the France team wins in Germany.
“If we win it, I will bow out”
“I arrived on November 11, 2011, a few years ago. I’m having fun with this new generation, even if there is a 20-year difference with the youngster, the latest arrival, Warren Zaire-Emery. I get along really well with the guys, even if there is a generation gap. There’s a great group, that’s what made me want to continue”confided the former Montpellier resident.
And the top scorer in the history of the Blues added: “I miss this Euro. If we win it, I will bow out. This may also be the case if we don’t follow through. I enjoy every moment. I said with some guys that if we won the 2022 World Cup, I would retire. But I’m hungry for titles with my country. I have many hopes and ambitions. If it goes well, it may be a possibility. »
