‘It’s the only one I’m missing’ – LAFC star expresses clear ambition for his final tournament”

Thirteen years after debuting for France, Olivier Giroud, now 37, will retire from international football after Euro 2024. This tournament represents his last chance to leave on a high note before joining Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer.

Giroud’s journey with the French national team has been tumultuous. From the scandal involving Karim Benzema to a goalless yet victorious 2018 World Cup, the French striker has always been a polarizing figure, except for Didier Deschamps, who consistently supported him.

 

After an exceptional season with AC Milan, his selection was inevitable. As France’s all-time top scorer with 57 goals, Giroud is highly motivated for his final international competition.

“It would be nice to finish with a trophy,” he told Téléfoot. “It’s the only one I’m missing. The most important thing is to give it my all; anything can happen in football.

On a personal level, reaching 60 goals would be great. I’m just 3 short, so I believe I can do it.” Despite his impressive form, Giroud is expected to be behind Inter Milan’s Marcus Thuram in Deschamps’ pecking order, though Thuram’s recent struggles might give Giroud an opportunity.
