The French club Lille officially announced the extension of their veteran striker Olivier Giroud's contract for an additional season, keeping him with the team until June 2027, continuing his professional career despite being 39 years old.

The decision to renew came after the levels shown by the all-time top scorer for the French national team during the past season, where he played a significant role in Lille securing third place in the French league and ensuring qualification for the Champions League for the next season.

The reports also confirmed that coach Davide Ancelotti considers Giroud an essential part of the team's project for the upcoming season, benefiting from his extensive experience at both the local and European levels.

Giroud joined Lille in the summer of 2025, coming from Los Angeles FC, and successfully scored 11 goals in 44 matches across various competitions, convincing the club's management to extend his contract for an additional year.
