Former Chelsea forward open to Palace and Fulham move

Former Chelsea and Arsenal forward Olivier Giroud is reportedly open to a return to the Premier League – with Crystal Palace and Fulham two teams named as potential destinations for the 36-year-old.

The Sun have also linked West Ham and Brentford as teams that could land the French veteran, who wants to move back to London.

The 36-year-old, who featured six times in the 2022 Qatar World Cup for Didier Deschamps’ side, is France’s all-time leading goalscorer, bagging 53 goals in 120 appearances.

The A.C. Milan forward’s contract expires in the summer, and he was reportedly a late candidate for Everton in the January transfer window.

Giroud, who has been at the San Siro since the summer of 2021, has scored seven goals and recorded four assists this season in the Serie A.

World Cup winner Giroud has 90 goals and 32 assists to his name in 255 Premier League appearances.
