However, RMC Sport now say Giroud is a target for the LaLiga leaders, despite scoring just 10 goals for Chelsea since joining the Blues this time last year.The 32-year-old remains a bench player under Maurizio Sarri, the Chelsea manager, with Eden Hazard preferred as a false nine. Sarri also hopes to bring a new forward to Stamford Bridge this month, with Chelsea’s other striker, Alvaro Morata, expected to leave the club to make way for Gonzalo Higuain.Morata has similarly been linked with a shock move to Barcelona, with rumours of the Spain international heading to Camp Nou being reported before World Cup winner Giroud was named as a target.Giroud joined Chelsea from Arsenal during the previous January transfer window2
