Olivier Giroud who started well with AC Milan has been suffering from back pain. Despite returning to the field in the matches against Spezia and Atlético, it seemed that he was not in his best form.
According to what is reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport in today's edition, the former Chelsea centre-forward is not ready at 100% yet. He is, in fact, still suffering from the lower back pain and some small effects of Covid-19 which took him out of the field for a little bit of time.
As pointed out by the source, the player will not be fit to start the match against Atalanta on Sunday but he could enter from the bench as a secondary weapon ready to try and make an impact. Giroud, however, will reach his best physical shape after the break, concludes the report.
