Hoddle says Chelsea striker Giroud won't be short of offers this summer

Chelsea hero Glenn Hoddle says Olivier Giroud won't be short of offers this summer.

Giroud notched an impressive hat-trick in Chelsea's 5-0 win over Dynamo Kiev in the Europa League on Thursday night and Hoddle reckons he could walk into most teams that will come calling.

“I don't think he does [gets enough credit]. Ever since he came to the country, I've liked him. At Arsenal I think he was excellent," Hoddle said.

“I think his contract's coming up this summer, isn't it? I think there'll be a few that are sniffing around. He could easily walk into a few teams.

“Today he was creative as well. He created a lot of things off him so his all-round game today was excellent.

“I think his end product is getting better and better."
