AC Milan, as per Corriere dello Sport, values greatly the experience that both Olivier Giroud and Simon Kjaer bring to the table. They have a strong leadership level that the young players need at this stage of their careers.

Giroud and Kjaer are two players with their caliber, in general, are always better to have than not. On the field they have a very different playing time but both know how to make themselves count. On the one hand, Kjaer is no longer among the starters in the lineup, but he is always ready to take to the field when called upon, bringing his order and his ability to command the entire department. Giroud is still decisive: despite his 37 years just turned, he has already scored 4 goals this year, provided assists and even saved three points with a save.
Talks in January planned by AC Milan?
The Frenchman and the Dane are clearly in the last years of their careers and the issue of renewal will be evaluated carefully by all parties involved. For two like them, the doors are always open but it is better not to rush. For this reason, the real talks will start in January, according to the latest report.
The middle of the season is a good time to evaluate the 'how it is going' and the 'how it could go'. Both Giroud and Kjaer have then sworn their love to Milan on more than one occasion, with words and gestures, so the feeling is that there will be time to renew them until the last.
Those who should be in their last season in red and black are Mirante and Caldara, for different reasons the two will say goodbye to the Devil at the end of the season except for sensational twists. For Luka Jovic, on the other hand, there are still several months ahead to prove to Pioli and himself that he is still worth something.
