Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud could be ready to move across London - again.

The Frenchman has found it very difficult to get game time this season under Frank Lampard.

And the veteran is considering a move back to Arsenal, the club he left to join Chelsea in the first place.

Giroud wants regular game time to get in the France squad for Euro 2020.

According to transfer expert Ian McGarry, new Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta may convince Giroud that he can play a key role for the rest of the season.

McGarry was speaking about who the Gunners would sign should Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leave the club.

He said: "Who do you go for? Oh look, there's Olivier Giroud over at Chelsea, he's a former Arsenal player, he knows the team, he knows the club, maybe he would be open to coming back.

"It's not the biggest stretch of imagination and I understand that Giroud would be open to moving back to Arsenal and staying in London.

Giroud had a five and a half year stint with the Gunners that ended in January 2018.
