Ex-Spurs Chimbonda urges Mourinho to go for Giroud
Ex-Tottenham Hotspurs right-back, Pascal Chimbonda, has urged Jose Mourinho to make a move for Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud.
The former Arsenal man is a free agent in the summer and is expected to leave this month.
Speaking to Gambling.com, Chimbonda said: “I do think they need a striker you know. Harry Kane is out for five or six weeks – who is going to score the goals?
“Lucas Moura is not a natural striker, Spurs need someone more like Kane, a focal point in the penalty area.
“Dare I say it, but I think someone like Olivier Giroud fits the bill.
“It’s obvious Frank Lampard doesn’t fancy him at Chelsea, I’m sure Giroud wants out, so why not him?
“Yes, he’s a former Arsenal player, but he’s also a World Cup winner and presumably he’s available.
