5 clubs Olivier Giroud could move to this January

Bubemi
France v Republic of Ireland - Round of 16: UEFA Euro 2016

#4 Newcastle

Newcastle United v Everton - Premier League

With the 2018 World Cup just around the corner, Olivier Giroud does not have the luxury of being fussy about his options. What he needs is game time and what Newcastle needs is goals, it’s a perfect match.

The Magpies are in the middle of a worrying rut, having only picked up 1 point since the start of November. They’re lacking goals, ideas and leaders. With rumours of a possible takeover currently doing the rounds, the signing of Olivier Giroud would significantly lift the morale of the Newcastle faithful.

The Frenchman possesses the perfect amount of experience to help lead a youthful Newcastle side to Premier League safety. Rafa Benitez's inexperienced squad needs a striker that can lead from the front and be the star man. The last time Olivier Giroud was a star man of a team, he won a league title.
