Olivier Giroud, during the Euro 2024 qualification match between France and Ireland played last night in Paris, left the field after about 25 minutes due to an ankle injury.
L'Equipe confirmed today that the exams conducted on the AC Milan striker by the French medical staff in the afternoon did not reveal anything serious. Nevertheless, the nearly 37-year-old, as a precaution, will immediately return to Milanello, skipping the upcoming national team friendly match against Germany. This decision was agreed upon by the player and coach Deschamps.
While waiting for Giroud to also be assessed by the AC Milan staff, it seems that Pioli can breathe a sigh of relief ahead of the derby against Inter on September 16, a match that will reopen the Rossoneri's league campaign after the break.
