Marseille Reportedly Retain Interest in Chelsea Striker Olivier Giroud

Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud continues to attract attention from Ligue 1 this summer and reportedly remains a target for Marseille, who are said to be hoping to bring the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner back to France this summer.

Marseille have been repeatedly linked with the frontman in recent months, and Le 10 Sport (h/t Sport Witness) reported they could come back in for the Blues forward before the Ligue 1 transfer window shuts on August 31.

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri already agreed to send Michy Batshuayi on loan to Valencia this summer, leaving only Giroud and Tammy Abraham as back-up to record signing Alvaro Morata.
