Chelsea have started talks with Olivier Giroud about possibly extending his contract and remaining with the club according to a report from British news outlet The Daily Mirror.
Giroud’s current contract with the Premier League outfit is due to expire at the end of the current season and he appeared set to leave the club on a free until now.
Chelsea typically only offer one year contract extensions to players over the age of 30 but the report warns that this may not be enough to entice Giroud to stick around given the amount of interest in him from elsewhere.
The report claims 33-year-old Giroud had in fact agreed a two and a half year deal with Inter back in January before Chelsea pulled the plug on the move and it is understood that he has a similar offer still on the table from Inter to join them in the Summer.
