Olivier Giroud, French 34 year-old experienced striker of Chelsea is apparently likely to leave his club at the end of the season when his contract is set to expire. One of the clubs that are reportedly interested is AC Milan.
Tuttosport newspaper took stock of the player's profile and analysed why he would be a good option for Stefano Pioli's squad.
Milan, after renewing Ibrahimovic's contract with a significant amount money will likely want to find an option to bring another attacker but an affordable price or for free. Giroud can indeed join as a free agent and he has quality and experience to help this team a lot.
Giroud is physically strong and well now. He also knows how to position well to find good opportunities to score goals, so it will not be a problem for him to fit in at Milan.
At Milan, he would find a lot of space while alternating with 39-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic unlike at Inter, who are interested in him, who have Romelu Lukaku as the untouchable centre-forward.
As for the contractual offer, the former Arsenal will not be satisfied with a salary of less than 3.5 million euros, concludes the newspaper.
