Report: Chelsea want £8.5m for Olivier Giroud

Chelsea reportedly want £8.5m for striker Olivier Giroud this January, with Inter Milan thought to be interested in his signature.

The French international has struggled for game time under Frank Lampard this season and is said to be looking for a move with his place at Euro 2020 potentially under threat.

According to The Guardian, Inter are currently willing to offer £3.4m for Giroud during this window, but Chelsea want £8.5m for the forward.

The report adds that Giroud is keen on the move and has already agreed terms with the Milan club which would keep him there until the end of the 2021-22 season.

The former Arsenal man has only made five Premier League appearances this season, failing to score or register an assist.

Giroud worked under Antonio Conte at Chelsea when he first joined from Arsenal, with the Frenchman playing an important role as the Blues lifted the FA Cup.
