Chelsea striker Giroud: Winning World Cup like the Holy Grail!

Olivier Giroud is hoping he can win the World Cup with France in June.

Les Bleus are one of the tournament favourites due to the abundance of talent at Didier Deschamps disposal. Paul Pogba, Antonio Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele and Kylian Mbappe are just some of the names who could lead the French attack.

But Deschamps loves using Giroud as his target man, and the 31-year-old is set to have an impact in Russia.

The Chelsea striker posted his ambitions, telling L'Equipe: " The dream is to win it.

"For my part, I'm lucky to play a second World Cup and I want to win. You do not even imagine ... It's the Grail for a football player!"
