He expressed excitement about returning to France and playing for Lille, highlighting the club's appeal and his desire to be a leader both on and off the field. Giroud signed a one-year contract with Lille.

Olivier Giroud, aged 38, is set to join Lille OSC next season. He was approached by the club this summer and is attracted by their proposal. Giroud has decided to terminate his contract with Los Angeles FC. He met with his current club's management to initiate the contract termination process. Once resolved, he will move to France to sign with Lille OSC. Although his salary will be lower than in the United States, estimated at around 3 million euros gross per year, he will benefit from impatriation status in France, reducing his taxes.
