According to transfer insider Graeme Bailey, the agent of Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud is trying to engineer a transfer to London rivals Tottenham Hotspur for the Frenchman.

Tottenham Hotspur need a new striker after Harry Kane suffered a long-term injury and it is believed Jose Mourinho could be interested.

33 year old Giroud has fallen down the pecking order at Chelsea this season and has made just seven appearances in all competitions.

Bailey finds it hard to believe that Chelsea would give Giroud the green light to join Tottenham Hotspur.

Serie A side Inter Milan are also interested in the World Cup and are expected to complete a move for Giroud before the end of the January transfer window.
