Could Olivier Giroud leave Arsenal in the January transfer window?
Ray Parlour suggested on The Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast show on talkSport on Monday morning (broadcast from 6am, November 14, 2016) that Olivier Giroud will not leave Arsenal in the January transfer window.
Giroud has been on the books of Arsenal since the summer of 2012 and has a contract with the Gunners until June 2018, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.
According to Sport Mediaset, Serie A outfit Napoli and AC Milan are interested in signing the France international striker in the January transfer window (click here to read more).
Former Arsenal midfielder Parlour does not believe that the 30-year-old will leave the Emirates Stadium in January.
“I think he will stay, definitely till the end of the season, then who knows?” said Parlour about Giroud on The Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast on talkSport on Monday morning (broadcast from 6am, November 14, 2016).
Giroud is a very good striker and has proved himself in the Premier League, but he has often struggled with consistency and has not always taken his chances.
The Frenchman is not guaranteed a place in the Arsenal starting lineup at the moment, as Alexis Sanchez is playing down the middle these days.
The former Montpellier star has scored two goals and created one chance in five Premier League appearances for Arsene Wenger’s side so far this season. In two Champions League matches this campaign, Giroud has scored one goal.
