Olivier Giroud 'agrees to Inter Milan move'

Chelsea forward Olivier Giroud has reportedly agreed to a January transfer to Inter Milan.

The 33-year-old's contract expires at the end of this season and he is expected to leave the club over the current window.

Giroud has become frustrated at a lack of game time under Frank Lampard, having fallen behind Tammy Abraham and Michy Batshuayi.

According to journalist Nicolo Shira, Giroud has agreed a contract with Inter which runs until the summer of 2022, with the striker set to receive £3.4m in wages along with bonuses.

Inter boss Antonio Conte, who worked with Giroud at Chelsea, is keen on adding experience to his squad ahead of the second half of the 2019-20 campaign.
