French striker Olivier Giroud, who is expected to leave OSC Lille this summer when his contract expires, is in negotiations with Turkish second-division newcomer Bursaspor. The 39-year-old World Cup winner, who returned to Europe last summer after playing for Los Angeles FC, has already held a video call with Bursaspor officials. Discussions are currently on hold as the player's wage demands are considered too high for the club. Bursaspor is reported to view the situation as a potential bargain but recognizes that it needs to improve its contract offer. The forward has 137 caps and 57 goals for France and has also been linked with Milan. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €1.00m.
