Chelsea striker, Olivier Giroud, has disclosed that he spoke with Lyon star, Nabil Fekir about joining the Blues.
Giroud stated this after Chelsea’s 5-4 penalty shootout victory over Lyon on Tuesday night.
Chelsea are believed to be in talks with Fekir, and hope that a deal can be done before Thursday’s transfer deadline.
“I spoke to Nabil when we were together in the French national team, when his move to Liverpool fell through,” Giroud told Foot Mercato.
“Then we discussed Chelsea, and I even think that Eden said a couple of words to him.
“We would obviously welcome him, he is a super player, but I don’t know if this is something that could happen as the window closes on Thursday.”
