The top scorer in the history of the France team has set his goals and delivered a clear message about his future international retirement.
Olivier Giroud is impatiently awaiting the Euro. In front of his television set, the top scorer in the history of the Blues (129 caps, 56 goals) carefully followed the draw which offers a complex but not insurmountable first round for his team (Netherlands, Austria, a dam builder). “ It’s not an easy group, I don’t make any fuss, it’s more affordable than the last Eurohe says. The Netherlands are boring to play against, Austria has some good young players, unknown to the general public, and against them, it has never been easy. We have to get through but it won’t be easy. »
Relaunched on RMC on his possible stop after the Euro (June 14-July 14), the veteran of the Blues has not closed the door. At 37 years old, if he still feels in great shape and as valuable as ever in the selection or at AC Milan, he also knows that time is passing and that the next generation is growing.
“I am hungry for titles with my country. I have a lot of hopes and ambitions”
Olivier Giroud
« I miss this Euro, if we win it, I will bow outhe assures half-heartedly. This may also be the case if we don’t follow through. I enjoy every moment. I said with some guys that if we won the 2022 World Cup, I would retire. But I’m hungry for titles with my country. I have many hopes and ambitions. If it goes well, it may be a possibility. »
