Olivier Giroud says he intends to continue with France until 2024 Euro
Giroud recently broke Thierry Henry record's for most goals for France
Olivier Giroud, an attacker for AC Milan and France, sat down for a Téléfoot conversation to talk about his prospects with Les Bleus and Kylian Mbappé's potential danger to his all-time hitting mark.
Football players frequently decide to end their professional playing careers before ending their international careers.
For instance, after France's World Cup final loss to Argentina, Raphael Varane, then 29 years old, announced his retirement from the team. However, Olivier Giroud, although being 37 years old, still has a significant impact on Les Bleus.
The Milan striker responded to Téléfoot's inquiry on his prospects for playing for the French national team by saying:
“The objective is to play at the EURO 2024. Clearly, it is not always possible but if we had the opportunity to bring the trophy home – it would be extraordinary.”
The Milan striker responded to Téléfoot's inquiry on his prospects for playing for the French national team by saying:
Former Chelsea striker broke Thierry Henry's milestone for most goals scored by the French national team at the 2022 World Cup. With 54 goals, the former Arsenal player currently holds the record for most goals scored in France's history.
However, Kylian Mbappé (24), who added three more goals to his account for France over the international break to increase his total for Les Bleus to 43 goals overall, is rapidly nearing his record.
Giroud was questioned by Téléfoot about his worry that Thierry Henry would soon be surpassed by Kylian Mbappé's record. The France player responded:
“If I can still score a few goals to help the team and especially get ahead of Kylian (Mbappé) that would be good.”
