Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud has revealed he “very nearly” left Stamford Bridge in January but says he now has his sights set on winning more trophies with the Premier League club.
Giroud recently signed a one-year contract extension that will keep him at Chelsea until the end of next season.
The new deal completed a sudden change of fortunes for the France international.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard had been searching for a striker in the January transfer window and Giroud, linked with a move to Tottenham, would have been surplus to requirements if a new recruit had arrived. (Guardian)
