Invited to a press conference this Wednesday, Guy Stéphan, Didier Deschamps’ loyal assistant, discussed the case of Olivier Giroud, who has played little since the start of the Euro.
And if Olivier
Giroud had played his last match in the blue jersey against Poland (1-1), on the occasion of the last group match of Euro 2024 of theFrench team ? This is a possibility that cannot be excluded…
A substitute in all four matches played by Les Bleus in the tournament, the new Los Angeles FC striker did not even come into play against Belgium on Monday in the round of 16. Didier Deschamps preferred to replace Marcus Thuram with Randal Kolo Muani, who proved decisive. This is the first time since his debut in the French team thathe does not participate in a match of a major tournament.
Stéphan on Giroud: “You never know what can happen…”
During a press conference this Wednesday, Guy Stéphan discussed the situation of the top scorer in the history of the Blues, who has already announced that he will end his international career at the end of the Euro. The faithful assistant of “DD” then indicated that the state of mind of the former Montpellier player was ” irreproachable ” and that he had to be ready, just in case…
“Deschamps told the players, who did not play against Belgium, not to give up, Guy Stéphan whispered. CSome can play a lot more after the group stage, like N’Zonzi at the 2018 World Cup. You never know what can happen, whether it’s for Giroud or the others. In yesterday’s session, there was a certain energy and joy of playing. Giroud has impeccable behavior, he was as happy for Kolo Muani as if he had scored. One thing is certain: Deschamps will not give Giroud any gifts. That is not the style of the house.
