Olivier Giroud Reveals Truth Behind Juventus Move

Olivier Giroud was surprised to hear about links to Juventus ahead of the 2020/21 campaign.

Reports claimed that the 33-year-old was on his way out to Turin this summer.

Giroud shut down all rumours when he told Telefoot, “I was surprised to receive messages from mates talking about the Juventus rumour. It is far from the truth. I am a Chelsea player & I feel good here. I did not have a great end of season just to leave without a bit of faith.”

Giroud signed a contract extension in May to stay at Chelsea for one more season. He is determined to fight for his spot even with Timo Werner coming in from RB Leipzig this summer.

He added, “One thing is certain: the competition will pull us all to the top. A great club should have different options in each position.

“We want to be in the race for the title and I’m here. I finished the season well and I proved to the manager that he can count on me. Werner is not the same profile as me, I hope to have some playing time.”
