      Giroud, 34, will be out of contract at Stamford Bridge this summer.
      He has made 31 appearances this season, scoring 11 goals, but has largely been confined to a substitute role.
      The striker’s agents, Frenchman Michael Manuello and Italian Morabito, have recently held talks with a series of clubs.
      Morabito said: “Manuello and I met with AC Milan at the end of the January transfer window.
      “They confirmed how highly they rate Giroud, although they said they were considering younger players for their attack.
      “However we have remained in contact with them, and we will see what happens in the future.
      “There was the possibility of Giroud moving to Italy in January.
      “We spoke with both Juventus and with Roma, when they thought that Edin Dzeko would leave for Inter Milan.

      “But there are also interesting situations for him in Spain and Germany.”
      Giroud has helped Chelsea win the Europa League and FA Cup since arriving from Arsenal in 2018.
      He previously won the FA Cup three times in six years with the Gunners.

      Cristiano Ronaldo backed for sensational Man Utd return after poor Juventus season by Gary Pallister

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED icon Gary Pallister believes club legend Cristiano Ronaldo could return to Old Trafford in the summer.The Juventus forward is facing an uncertain future in Italy with the 36-year-old to potentially be sold at the end of the season.

      Former Red Devils defender Gary Pallister has backed Ronaldo to return to Old TraffordCredit: Getty
      Ronaldo has just one year left on his contract in Turin, and the Old Lady could decide to cash in on their prized asset.
      And the five-time Ballon d’Or winner could opt to quit Juve with the Serie A giants in danger of missing out on the Champions League.
      Andrea Pirlo’s side sit in fifth spot with just one top-flight match to go, and it is unlikely Ronaldo would want to compete in the Europa League next term.
      The ex-Real Madrid maestro has already fuelled speculation he could leave by loading his £17million car collection into a trailer on Tuesday night.
      Commenting on his future, former United defender Pallister told Compare.bet: “I could see him coming back.
      “He had a great time at Old Trafford, and coming back here would suit Cristiano with Juve struggling with Champions League qualification.
      “He didn’t have issues here the first time round under the leadership of Sir Alex, and you can see that he still looks after himself and has that hunger.

      “He still wants to compete at the top level and play Champions League football, and if he comes to United you have to find a place for Cristiano Ronaldo.

      “He’s a magnificent player and still has that hunger to prove himself as the best player that’s ever walked this planet.
      “I think he’s on record as wanting to play until he’s 40 – sometimes when you’re bringing a player back to a club you worry about the hunger and desire if it’s something seen as more of a final payday.
      “You see the way he talks and trains, he’s still keen and can be one of the best players in the world at United.”
      Despite Juve’s struggles this campaign, Ronaldo has once again starred as he sits top of the Serie A goalscoring charts.
      The Sporting Lisbon academy graduate has banged in 29 league goals this term from just 33 games.
      And he brought up 100 goals in all competitions for the Bianconeri in last week’s 3-1 win against Sassuolo.

      Jose Mourinho wants Aleksandar Mitrovic to join Roma revolution with new boss a big fan of the unhappy Fulham striker

      by

      ALEKSANDAR MITROVIC wants to leave Fulham this summer with Italian giants Roma keen to sign him.Serbia’s record goalscorer, 26, was out of the squad for the 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Tuesday night due to a glute injury.

      He has been frustrated under Fulham chief Scott Parker, after starting just 13 league games this term despite hitting 26 Championship goals last season.
      New Roma boss Jose Mourinho is a big fan of the ex-Newcastle hitman, having kept tabs on him last year as Spurs chief.
      West Ham head coach David Moyes also admires last season’s Championship Golden Boot winner.
      Mitrovic would prefer another London club, having settled with his family in the capital since 2018.
      He has been largely overlooked this campaign by Parker, who has often preferred to use winger, Ivan Cavaleiro, as a lone striker. 
      Mourinho is believed to be stepping up plans to re-vamp Roma’s squad, who are currently struggling in seventh place.
      But SunSport revealed the Portuguese icon has been told by Spurs to forget about trying to sign Eric Dier and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg this summer.
      Reports in Italy claim Mourinho has told his new Roma bosses at the Stadio Olimpico to go to his old club to sign England defender Dier and Danish midfield anchorman Hojbjerg.
      But Spurs insist the duo are definitely not for sale.

      Serie A star Gianluca Scamacca’s dad arrested after storming Roma’s training ground armed with a bar and smashing cars

      by

      SASSUOLO striker Gianluca Scamacca’s father was arrested after he stormed into Roma’s training ground and allegedly smashed cars with an iron bar.The footballer was part of Roma’s youth set-up between 2012-15 but never made it as far as the first team.
      Gianluca Scamacca’s father was reportedly arrested after smashing up cars at Roma’s training centreCredit: AP
      He is now on loan at Genoa from Sassuolo.
      Italian newspaper Il Messaggero is reporting that Scamacca’s father ‘destroyed some of the cars’ that were parked up.
      The man, named as Emiliano Scamacca by Gazetta, was apparently wearing a Sassuolo sweatshirt.
      Reports add that he entered the sports centre and headed straight for the car park.
      He then allegedly destroyed the windows ‘of four or five cars’ – one of them belonging to Roma’s sporting director Tiago Pinto.
      Scamacca Sr then went over to a pitch where youth players were training, with coaches and the footballers sent into a panic.
      Police attended the incident minutes later and arrested the footballer’s father.
      Italian newspapers Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport claim that the man was not identified by security at the Roma’s training centre.

      Scamacca Jr, who plays a striker, has featured 28 times for Genoa this season.
      He has netted eight times in all competitions.
      The 22-year-old is on his fourth loan club from Sassuolo, following spells at Ascoli, PEC Zwolle and Cremonese.

      Matthijs de Ligt, Weston McKennie and Paulo Dybala – another player whose future is in doubt – were among the stars shown modelling the black-and-white stripes, along with Ronaldo.
      Speculation has been mounting around the winger’s future despite his Juve contract running for another 12 months.
      The Old Lady will reportedly struggle to pay his hefty wages if they fail to qualify for next season’s Champions League, a race which will be decided on the upcoming final weekend of the season.
      Tension is also said to be growing in the dressing room amid claims that team-mates are tired of Ronaldo’s privileges.
      The 36-year-old was allowed to skip training last week to purchase a new Ferrari supercar and was seen loading his fleet onto a lorry overnight, fuelling gossip over his future.
      Sporting CP had been tipped to try and bring Ronaldo back to Lisbon but his agent, Jorge Mendes, has quashed the rumours.

      He said: “Cristiano is proud of the title won by Sporting, as he has publicly demonstrated.
      “But at the moment his career plans do not go through Portugal.”
      Real Madrid have ruled themselves out of the running with Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United also linked.
      However, Andrea Pirlo has insisted that Ronaldo is happy with life in Turin.

      Having substituted the attacker late on in the weekend win over Inter Milan, the coach praised his star’s reaction.
      Pirlo told Sky Italia: “I think it was the first time he was happy to be subbed off.
      “We were one man down, and he’d have been chasing shadows. He was happy and smiling in the dressing room.”

      Chelsea ‘planning Ruslan Malinovskyi transfer raid this summer with Atalanta midfielder high on Thomas Tuchel’s list’

      by

      CHELSEA are planning a summer raid for Atalanta midfield magician Ruslan Malinovskyi, according to reports.The £20million-rated Ukraine international playmaker has had an outstanding season for his unfancied Italian club.
      Rumours suggest Chelsea are after midfielder Ruslan MalinovskyiCredit: Rex
      Malinovskyi has scored nine goals in 41 games, and set up a dozen more, to inspire Atalanta to second in Serie A.
      The Bergamo outfit have also reached the Coppa Italia final, where they will face Juventus on Wednesday.
      The 28-year-old’s heroics come despite having tested positive for Covid-19 last November.
      Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel will seek to put his own stamp on the Blues’ squad during the close season.
      The German has impressively guided the West Londoners to a Champions League final showdown with Manchester City.
      But he will be aware there is still work to be done in the transfer market following Saturday’s disappointing FA Cup final defeat to Leicester.

      Malinovskyi is also understood to be a target for newly-crowned Serie A champions Inter Milan as well as Paris Saint-Germain.
      However Chelsea’s Russian ownership would offer the 33-cap Ukraine ace extra temptation to move to Stamford Bridge.
      The former Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder spent two seasons with Genk, winning the Belgian title in 2019, before a £12million move to Atalanta that year.
      He is under contract until 2023.
      But reports in Ukraine and Belgium now claim Chelsea will test Atalanta’s resolve to keep him with a substantial post-season bid.

      Ronaldo, 36, has been linked with a return to first club Sporting Lisbon and is said to be getting cold shouldered by team mates who are fed up at how he is given preferential treatment by club directors.
      Last week the entire squad were brought in for an extra day’s training while the Portugese international was treated to a day trip around the Ferrari HQ in Maranello near Bologna.
      Now video has emerged of his car collection – which includes a Bugatti, a Mercedes jeep and a Maseratti – being loaded into a trailer overnight by a team of mechanics from a Lisbon-based company.
      Footage of the night time operation was posted on an Italian football website called Per Sempre Calcio and it was filmed from a balcony overlooking the garage in Turin where the cars are stored.
      The firm moving the cars – Rodo Cargo – is based in the Portugese capital Lisbon and specialises in moving luxury cars belonging to footballers all over the world.
      Now an alleged neighbour of Ronaldo’s, named Luciano Saroglia, has called a football talk show to describe what he saw.
      Speaking on Radio Punto Nuovo, Luciano said: “Being a proper Turin resident born and bred in the city the only team I support is Torino, the one and only side in the city.
      “Three years ago when Ronaldo arrived two trucks turned up and all his cars were off loaded onto the street and they went into the garage.

      “Yesterday evening around 11.30, I looked out the window and saw the same truck that had arrived three years ago, outside on the street with the cars being loaded in.
      “It was definitely not a council tow away truck – you could tell. This had two decks for all the cars and was a trailer.”
      He continued: “There were a couple of guys there loading the cars and then all of a sudden I saw Ronaldo on the street supervising it all.
      “I can’t see them being moved to another part of the city, if you ask me he is off.
      “I could hear him talking with the driver and the other guys but it was in Portugese so I didn’t understand it.

      The truck was filmed loading his cars onto it late on Sunday evening
      “To be fair to him, the whole time he has been here he has been an ideal neighbour, not one party, no noise and we have never had any reason to complain.
      “The benefit for the neighbourhood is that since he moved in the amount of police patrols have increased so if he goes I’m sure that will change.”
      Ronaldo’s mother Dolores Aveiro already said she will ‘try to convince’ her son to return to Lisbon, but agent Jorge Mendes denied the Portugal icon will head back to his homeland.
      Rumours are rife he may move back to United or even Paris Saint-German as fifth-placed Juve face the prospect of missing out on Champions League football next season.
      They are away to second placed Atalanta on Wednesday before facing Bologna in their last game of the season and must win both to have any chance of making Europe’s premier cup competition.
