Chelsea will pay Arsenal £19 million for striker Olivier Giroud, and will offer the player an 18-month contract according to reports from L’Équipe, cited by GFFN.
Giroud, 31, has spent six years with the Gunners after joining from Montpellier back in 2012, and has scored over 100 goals for the club, however, is now deemed surplus to requirements and is expected to head to Stamford Bridge.
With Arsenal announcing the signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund on deadline day and Michy Batshuayi expected to join Borussia Dortmund from Chelsea, Giroud will complete the circle by joining the Blues from the Gunners.
Giroud is hopeful of making the France squad for the upcoming World Cup this summer, and sees himself getting more game time with the Blues over staying at the Emirates.
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has been desperate to add to his attacking options this month, and has become increasingly frustrated by the lack of business the Blues have done in the window, however, with the addition of Ederson Palmieri from Roma along with Giroud today, Conte may well be a muh happier man.
