Olivier Giroud’s Bio, Age

Olivier Giroud was born on September 30, 1986, in a small town in southern France. He had been a football fan since he was a child, thanks to his elder brother, Romain, who played for local teams. Romain would offer his younger brother useful advice, but what came across as a big setback was the fact that Romain finally left his goals of being a player and began studying to become a nutritionist.

He was ten years older than Olivier, and his early exit had a significant psychological effect on him, but he was able to join at the nearby Olympique Club de Forges. His involvement with the club began when his family relocated to the little community of Forges. For the next six years, Olivier worked toward perfecting his talents and by the time he was a teenager, he was a competitive player ready to earn an opportunity to participate in the biggest games.

At the age of 13, professional team Grenoble signed him, and knowing how his brothers had given up on his football goals, Olivier’s performance suffered dramatically. He spent five more years in the club’s youth program, but he was never regarded as a good enough player to play at the higher levels.

Olivier, determined to make an impression on the team management, scored 15 goals in 15 matches, and his performance grew his importance over the following seven years. Finally, in March 2006, Grenoble’s senior team management was forced to recall him to the first squad.

Body Measurements

Giroud has a height of 6 feet 4 inches and weighs 88 kg. His hair color is black and has dark brown eyes.

Career

In the 2006-07 season, he made his official senior debut, and in February 2007, he scored his first professional goal against Le Havre. Later, he described the experience as one of the happiest moments of his life. However, his total performance in his rookie season, scoring two goals in 18 appearances, was rated ordinary at best.

He didn’t receive enough playing time, therefore he joined Istres for the 2006-07 season to make up for it. He played for them in the Championnat National, which is considered the third level of French football.
As he returned to Grenoble, he learned that his club had qualified for Ligue 1, and Olivier had great hopes of playing in big competitions.

In May 2008, an announcement was made confirming Olivier’s three-year contract with the Ligue 2 team Tours. During his debut season with Tours, Olivier scored 5 goals in the first two games of the Coupe de France, and despite the club’s relegation from the league, Olivier’s performance was praised. He continued to shine on the pitch, finishing his debut season with Tours with 14 goals in 27 games.

The Montpellier club was interested in Olivier and signed him in July 2010. Olivier scored his first goal for his new team on July 29th, and he was off to a great start. The squad reached the final of the Coupe de La Ligue, which was a nice surprise, and most of the credit went to Olivier, who routinely scored goals in critical matches.

Olivier’s start to the 2011-12 season was nothing short of spectacular, as he scored in the first two league games of the season. In November 2011, Olivier’s brilliant form put the team at the top of the table.

Olivier had scored 21 goals before the end of the league season, earning him the title of league top scorer.
Many big teams were in the running to recruit Olivier during the 2012-13 season, and eventually, the Premier League club Arsenal won the race.

Olivier made his Premier League debut for Arsenal against Sunderland in August 2012 and scored his first goal in the League Cup against Coventry City in September. He missed four matches at the end of the season due to a red card, but he had already left his mark with a season total of 17 goals in 47 games.

For the following five seasons, Olivier was able to establish himself as a top player scoring in big games. Olivier made 180 games and scored 73 goals for Arsenal during his six-year stay. His move became obvious in early 2018, as he signed an 18-month deal with Chelsea.
He didn’t receive much time in the younger levels, but he was called up for the national squad in late 2011, after match-winning performances at his club Montpellier. He has appeared in 69 international matches for his country, scoring 29 goals. Since his debut for the national team, he has played in the 2014 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2016.

Who is Olivier Giroud’s Wife?

Giroud is a devout Catholic and an extremely religious guy. On his right arm, he has a Bible psalm tattooed.

He has also been in the center of controversy on many occasions, including being questioned about cheating on his wife with a model named Celia Kay. He then denied having had an extramarital affair.
