Olivier Giroud Keeps Promise And Shaves Head After France World Cup Win
By Harry DeCosemo, Sports Reporter
July 24, 2018 Olivier Giroud may not have found the net at the World Cup this summer, but he played a vital role in helping France lift the trophy for the second time and he has decided to mark it in a very special way.
The Chelsea striker, who has been linked with Atletico Madrid despite only joining the Blues in January, has decided to shave his head alongside Hugo Lloris, captain of Les Bleus.
He has followed through on his promise, but not before keeping another for his wife, only getting the scissors out after his son was baptised.
“I promised to shave my head if we win the WC and I’ll do it right after the baptism of my child on July 22,” he said beforehand.
“I only have one rule, so I will respect it. My wife wants me to do it after the baptism of our son on Sunday. Hugo Lloris also said he’d do it.”
Once Giroud’s holidays are over, he will return to Stamford Bridge to find Maurizio Sarri in charge after the former Napoli boss replaced Antonio Conte earlier this month.
