Olivier Giroud, France’s all-time leading scorer, will join LAFC during the summer transfer window after announcing his departure from Italian club AC Milan. 'I will be playing my final two matches with Milan and will continue my career in the MLS,' Giroud said in a TV interview. 'I'm very proud of what I've achieved at Milan in the last three years. My time with Milan might be finishing this year but the club will remain in my heart.
The 37-year-old striker, who helped France to a World Cup title in 2018, was photographed Monday wearing an LAFC scarf, with a team jersey and cap on the table in front of him. Giroud, whose MLS contract reportedly runs through 2025, will be reunited with former French captain Hugo Lloris at LAFC. Before joining Milan in 2021 and leading the team to a league title, Giroud won Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup titles with Chelsea. He also won three FA Cups in six years at Arsenal.
