'I'm happy here again' - Giroud makes Chelsea U-turn & is open to signing new deal

The Frenchman hasn't ruled out remaining at Stamford Bridge for another season despite the recent uncertainty over his future

Olivier Giroud says he is open to staying at Chelsea beyond the end of the season despite having come close to making a January move away from the club.

Inter had agreed a contract with the Blues striker, with Lazio and Tottenham having also expressed an interest in the French World Cup winner.

Chelsea ultimately opted to keep Giroud after failing to sign a forward in January, with Ajax winger Hakim Ziyech set to sign in a £37 million (€42m/$47m)in the summer.
