Giroud could yet quit Chelsea despite new deal

Olivier Giroud could yet leave Chelsea this summer - despite signing a new deal yesterday.

The 33 year-old striker has penned a 12 month contract extension this week.

But Le 10 Sport says Roma and Lazio remain in contact and are still hopeful of tempting Giroud to Italy for next season.

And it's suggested Chelsea could cash in and use the money raised to go toward a bid for Lille striker Victor Osimhen.

For his part, Giroud remains open to rival offers, despite securing his future for another 12 months.
