Giroud extended Chelsea contract due to COVID-19!

COVID-19 has changed the world completely. Football has also been affected by the pandemic. 

Although it is not all bad news. Olivier Giroud, a Chelsea player, explained that, due to the coronavirus pandemic, he decided to stay at Chelsea. 

"With the whole coronavirus lockdown situation, I didn’t really feel comfortable with the idea of moving abroad and uprooting my family. I think a lot about our quality of life and we have a great setup here. I think a lot about my family now," he told Chelsea's club website. 

The footballer said he is happy in London and that he hopes to continue giving fans something to shout about. "I simply seized my opportunity and I repaid the faith that the manager had shown in me. That’s why the club ultimately offered me the chance to continue my time at Chelsea and I accepted immediately because I like it here. I want to keep winning trophies and I want to continue to show the manager that he can count on me," the Frenchman concluded.
