Olivier Giroud has been offered a pre-contract by Lazio but will wait to make a final decision on next season after interest from Tottenham during the January transfer window.

I can’t see us following this up in the Summer as Kane will be back by then and we would look to a younger player.

We've got a younger player in Parrott who probably needs a couple of seasons to properly develop. A player like Giroud makes a fair bit of sense to me, although not necessarily Giroud himself.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat, but I do wonder if it's because of his London-Merc status - he has a lot of great qualities that I don't think many of us, or the Woolwich' fans, realised until he went to Chelsea. He's apparently happy to play second fiddle and come on late in games, he's not an out and out striker and is able to play with his back to goal which would work well with Lucas, Alli, Son, etc.

I dunno, I guess it would come down to wages. Seems to be the crux of most deals now.
