Olivier Giroud fuels transfer speculation
Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud has come out and claimed that he has received offers from several clubs thereby casting serious doubts over his future at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea who have been handed a transfer ban could still exercise the option of extending his contract by a year if they don't want to see him leave for free.
Giroud said,
"I am frustrated when not on the pitch, but I just don't want to show it,"
"I am not happy to be the second striker.
“I don't know [if I will be here next season] you have to speak to Marina [Granovskaia]. I want to enjoy my football. It must be decided by the end of the season.
"Yes [I have received offers from other clubs] but I cannot tell you yet. I am focused on Chelsea."
