Serie A giants want Olivier Giroud?

Serie A duo Juventus and Inter Milan could reportedly vie for the services of Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud at the end of the campaign.

The France international came close to linking up with league rivals Everton in the summer but eventually rejected the deal as he had a strong attachment to the Gunners.

According to Calciomercato, both Juventus and Inter Milan will be in the market for new marksmen next summer, and Giroud is one of the prime targets in their respective shortlists.

Giroud is well aware that his opportunities will be limited for the current campaign, but he is said to have turned down an exit as it could have an influence on his World Cup berth next year.

The former Montpellier man has played second fiddle up front for the past 15 months or so, and there is every chance that he will contemplate his departure at the end of the season.

Giroud bagged his 100th goal for Arsenal earlier last month after he converted a penalty in the 4-2 Europa League win over BATE Borisov.
