AC Milan striker Giroud: I'm here to win the Scudetto; don't tell Zlatan this...

AC Milan striker Olivier Giroud says winning the title this season remains a target.

Milan meet Inter in the derby on Saturday night.

Giroud said, "My primary objective is to win the Scudetto with Milan in 2022, then whatever comes after that is a bonus.

“Of course we believe in the Scudetto. Now we have an important game with Inter and a win would be a good opportunity to be in there to the end. I played and scored in my first London derby against Tottenham, I knew what it meant to the Arsenal fans.

"The fans saw the real Giroud, but I know that I can still give more to help the team. I would like to play more from now on, the coach makes his choices, but I feel good physically and I'm ready to achieve our objectives.

“I admired Andriy Shevchenko and Ibrahimovic, but I haven't told Zlatan that yet… He was already a top player at the age of 20, my friends gave me his jersey as a gift. Maybe I'll get him to sign it…"
