Calciomercato.com report that Giroud continued his trend of always being there in important moments, particularly at the Maradona where he has now scored four goals since signing for Milan.
Behind that vehement reaction to the substitution also hides the sensitivity of a man who feels what it means to wear the Rossoneri shirt and with all his strength wants to reverse a situation that sees the team in difficulty in terms of results.
The Frenchman is a super competitive player with an incredible hunger for victories, even at 37 years old with a career behind him made up of many successes and titles. This is why his priority is to play at least for one or two more seasons at Milan, which can also give him the chance to fight for the Champions League and the Scudetto.
Giroud’s entourage have started initial contacts with the Milan management to discuss the renewal of his contract expiring in June, and Milan’s priority has also been reiterated in recent days.
The former Arsenal and Chelsea man has received offers from MLS and Saudi Arabia, but has not taken them into consideration for the moment. The focus is entirely on the pitch and on Milan with the hope of soon finding an agreement over a new deal.
