Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud is free to hold talks with clubs outside England as he is in the final six months of his Chelsea deal.

The 34-year-old has reportedly been in discussions with Juventus after entering the final six months of his contract.

According to The Sun, Giroud’s talks with the Old Lady have stalled as the Frenchman is unhappy about only being offered a six-month deal.

The Frenchman is Chelsea’s joint top-scorer this season with nine goals, but has failed to play regularly under Frank Lampard despite his good form.
