Powerful World Cup winner ‘has suggested’ Chelsea is where he will be by end of January window
Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud has suggested that he will not push for a January move.
Despite the fact that Giroud was a major player for Chelsea last season in their quest to get back into those top four spots, there has been constant speculation about his long-term future at the club as he was not a regular started in the side over the opening weeks of the season.
However, over the past few months he has been a major player in Frank Lampard’s starting line-up and has become an integral part of the squad, and because he is in such form, speculation that he might depart in the coming month has notably died away.
And Giroud has suggested in an interview with Sky Sports that he presently has no plans to change clubs.
“Obviously, I am very happy with these numbers. I am the happiest man when I am on the pitch,” he said.
“We will see what happens in the next few months but I just want to keep my efficiency high. When I am not on the pitch, I just try to be a part of the team.
“I really want the best for this team and I really believe we have a big opportunity to win something at Chelsea with this great squad. I will just carry on like this and try to keep it up.”
Giroud is in a great run of form for Chelsea and fully deserves to stay at the club, he should stay until at least the end of the season, and then make up his mind about leaving the club.
As soon as he stops putting the ball in the back of the net, his game time will decrease once again, and that is not what he wants next season.
