Pundit says Chelsea striker would be an ideal signing for Liverpool

Liverpool have been urged to make a move for Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud.

The French international is out of contract at the end of the season, and it is unclear whether he will extend his stay at Stamford Bridge.

Giroud highlighted his quality with a stunning goal against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, taking his tally to 11 this season in all competitions.

Former Blues striker Tony Cascarino is a big admirer of Giroud and believes he would be a shrewd signing for Liverpool.

“I think there are very few players that can do the Roberto Firmino role,” he told talkSPORT.
