He however disclosed that if the Blues are ready to sell Giroud they would prefer to sell to West Ham than to Tottenham who are direct rivals.

“I know there’s interest from West Ham United,” Crook said. “David Moyes is a huge admirer of Giroud and clubs abroad as well.”

“If you’re Frank Lampard now, how can you let Giroud go now given his goals return?

“I suppose where West Ham would have the edge over someone like Tottenham for example, who have also shown an interest in the past, is that they wouldn’t be viewed as direct rivals.”

While Lampard is yet to decide on whether Giroud would be allowed to leave in January, top European clubs like Inter Milan and AC Milan have, however, shown interest in him as well.
