5 footballers who could pass off as models

#2 Olivier Giroud

Olivier Giroud has the looks to pursue an alternative career

The Frenchman is blessed with the looks of a Greek god, which have won him lots of female attention on the internet – especially since the time he signed for Arsenal. He has performed both on and off the pitch since moving to London – scoring modelling contracts from the likes of Hugo Boss and Dieux de Stade.

Giroud is a known smoker and has a number of tattoos spread through his torso. The one on his left arm demands special attention, reading ‘‘The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want’.

As of May 2014, Giroud had a net worth of $245 million, commanding huge endorsement fees on account of his killer looks and charisma on and off the pitch.
