Olivier Giroud: Chelsea striker signs one-year contract extension at Stamford Bridge
Olivier Giroud has signed a new one-year contract at Chelsea, the Premier League side have confirmed.
The France striker joined the Blues from Arsenal in January 2018, scoring 17 goals in 62 appearances to date.This season, Giroud has scored 10 goals in the Europa League – becoming the first ever Chelsea player to reach double figures in a single season of European football.The 18-month deal Giroud signed when he joined from the Gunners expired this summer, and as the World Cup winner struggled for regular playing time there had been speculation he could seek a return to his homeland.But with Chelsea still facing a transfer ban this summer, subject to an appeal before the Court of Arbitration for Sport, the club were keen to retain Giroud in an area of the pitch where they remain short of depth.“I am very happy to sign a new contract,” Giroud said on the Chelsea website.Olivier Giroud has signed a one-year contract extension at ChelseaGetty1

“I really wanted to stay at least one more year – I have felt a part of the team, the family, since the beginning and hopefully there will be more trophies to come.”Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia added: “We are very pleased that Olivier will be a Chelsea player for another season.“Since joining us 18 months ago, he has at times had to be patient and wait for opportunities, but has still been able to make a positive contribution to the team.”   

Surprisingly, at the time of writing, Jota is still owned by just 2.3 per cent of managers in the FPL. After a spell out, the Portuguese ace bounced back with a hat-trick in his second game after returning. Plus, he had two his last three matches before injury and is playing as more of a forward too, which helps given hes listed as a midfielder.

Unai Emery said before the game that the conditions would not be an excuse for his side but there was no doubting the pitch made it difficult to play a slick passing game. It looked as though a tractor had been taken to it before kick-off and the ball subsequently bobbled all over the place and players regularly slipped over.
