Six months before the start of Euro 2020, Olivier Giroud must find a regular playing time in order to keep his place of holder within the French team of Didier Deschamps. Therefore, several clubs League 1 – including L’ OL –Olympique Lyonnais, the OM – Olympic Marseille and the Girondins de Bordeaux – came to knock on the door of the entourage of the attacker Chelsea.
However, if the Blues are again authorized to recruit on the Mercato, the board of the London club has not yet decided on the case Olivier Giroud, especially as another leading attacker in the person of Michy Batshuayi should be loaned to Aston Villa, another resident of Premier League. In words transcribed on Skysports, Jody Morris, the assistant of Franck Lampard, calmed rumors of the Frenchman’s departure, much appreciated by Aulas and Lyon : “He is still a player of Chelsea. If he leaves, this must be done for the benefit of the club. We can’t let the players go if that leaves us short of solutions. Of course, you have to look at the individual level as well, and I have to say that Giroud has behaved with class and like a great professional since he arrived. So I don’t imagine it will be a problem there. ”
Too bad for OL, OM and the Girondins de Bordeaux!
