Olivier Giroud
39-Year-Old
Lille
Ligue 1
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Giroud had a challenging first season in MLS, struggling to find his rhythm after arriving late in 2024. The veteran striker still showed glimpses of his quality, but consistency eluded him without a full preseason to adapt. In 2025, with the benefit of complete preparation, Giroud is expected to play a more decisive role for LAFC, contributing both goals and assists. His experience and ability to link up play will be key, especially in support of Denis Bouanga, as he looks to make a significant impact in his second year.
Scores brace in win
Giroud scored two goals to go with four shots (four on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 victory over Paris FC.
ANALYSIS
Giroud scored twice to help Lille win at home and now has five goals in the season. The forward led his side in shots during the match. That was his 11th start in 15 overall appearances for the club.
