A lot of emotion for Olivier Giroud, this Sunday March 12, 2023 on TF1 in the show Telefoot. The 36-year-old striker was in the spotlight in the Sunday football meeting. A few days from Didier Deschamps’ list for the Euro 2024 qualifiers, the top scorer in the history of the Blues can count on the support of his family and especially his big brother Romain.
“For me, you are the best player in the world. I never told you, but through you, I made the career that I never managed to make”. These were the words received by the 2018 world champion from his role model and biggest supporter. Aged 45, he was also a footballer, as a defender, passed through the reserves of Auxerre or Rennes, before turning to another career, that of dietitian nutritionist.
“My brother bluffs me every day, this kid amazes me!”he had dropped a few months ago in the columns of Alsace. “Olivier is not only a top athlete, he is also a great champion. Wherever he went, he won. And it was not always easy. But adversity was a driving force. Nothing is given in life. And the more difficult it is, the better it is in the end. Fighting has been a common thread in his career. Having his back against the wall has kept him alert.
