Olivier Giroud desires to leave Chelsea this January, Will the below mentioned player be his replacement at Chelsea?.

The France forward who was signed by Chelsea from their Premier League rival, Arsenal FC will hope to leave Chelsea football Club before the transfer window runs out.

The France international has been struggling to nail starting spot, He has find himself surplus to requirement in the team squad.

The 32-years-old who was arguable considered as one of the best striker in the Premier League has falling down the pecking order under the management of Frank Lampard.

 Giroud had scored 78 League goals in 225 outings for both London Clubs, his career got declined tremendously at Chelsea; he was just the shadow of his previous performance during his peak period at the Emirate Stadium.  

The World cup winner had to compete with Gonzalo Higuain for the starting role under the Chelsea’s former manager Maurizio Sarri, but eventually lost his place to the Argentine.

His only reputable performance in the Blue’s jersey was in the Europa League where he helped the Pensioners to win the trophy by beating their London rival 4 – 1 in the final – He was awarded with the boots with 11 goals.

Many football fans believe that the France international can still revive his career when Frank Lampard was appointed Sarri’s successor, but he failed to deliver.

Olivier Giroud was considered the ideal man to lead Chelsea’s attack since Tammy Abraham and Michy Batshuayi are just returning from loan, without much Premier League experience.

However, the former Arsenal striker still continues to loop in his poor form, thereby losing his starting spot to Abraham while Michy became the second choice striker.

The striker has only featured 5 times in the League, 3 was from the bench – His only goal for the Pensioners this season was against Liverpool FC in the super cup.

Giroud who had grown frustrated with the situation at Chelsea is on the verge of securing a move to join former Chelsea Manager, Antonio Conte at Inter Milan.

 Frank Lampard who had budgeted 150 million Euros for January signing will hope to sign a striker as a backup for Tammy Abraham and Michy.

Frank Lampard’s bid for Moussa Dembele was rejected by Ligue 1 team, the former Chelsea’s midfielder will hope to splash out some cash on any available striker in order to keep their top four dreams alive.

However, signing Dembele will be a great advantage to the Blues, but the speculation surrounding his future might force the Pensioners to consider seeking an alternative before the closure of the transfer window.

Krysztof Piatek who is ready to leave to the Series A giant AC Milan, after he was displaced by the former Serie A top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be the perfect replacement for Olivier Giroud.

Krysztof Piatek scored 30 league goals last season but has failed to replicate same performance this season.

The former Genoa Striker manages to score 5 goals in 18 Serie A campaigns this season. 

Krysztof Piatek who is natural goal scorer is good at both feet.

Krysztof Piatek is fast and excellent in the air, He will be an added advantage for the Pensioners, his technique makes him a handful for every defender.

Krysztof Piatek physical strength might help him to adapt to the pattern of play at premier league quickly.
