da betsul: The agent of Chelsea forward Olivier Giroud is attempting to take his client to Tottenham Hotspur before the January transfer window closes for business, according to journalist Graeme Bailey.
da pinnacle: There has been no mention of any actual interest from Spurs, although Bailey has claimed that Giroud’s agent is attempting to “engineer a move” to Jose Mourinho’s side in the lead-up to Friday night’s deadline.
And a number of Tottenham fans have been on social media offering their views on the 6 foot 4 ace.
Some of the supporters are open to the idea of the 33-year-old joining the club.
However, it would also be fair to say that a number of Tottenham fans are simply not interested in the 2018 World Cup winner potentially arriving at the club.
Giroud might have only made five Premier League appearances for Chelsea this season but his overall record in England’s top flight is 78 goals in 225 outings, which is far from disastrous.
The fact that Harry Kane is on the sidelines until at least April following hamstring surgery means that Spurs are short in attack, and it would not be a surprise to see them move for a new striker before Friday’s deadline.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are still in talks over a double deal late in the transfer window, according to an Italian journalist.
