Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti is backing France teammate Olivier Giroud for a move to Lyon.

Off contract in June, Chelsea striker Giroud has raised the prospect of signing for OL this summer.

And their former defender Umtiti supports the move.

He told Telefoot: "OL, a good destination for Giroud? Of course.

"It's up to him to make the right choices as he has. OL, in France, is one of the best clubs where you can flourish."
