Italian reports remain confident that Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud will join Milan as a free agent next week.

The 34-year-old is available after winning the Champions League, as his contract was not renewed at Stamford Bridge.

He had already been linked with a move to Italy in January, but the negotiations seem to have been successful this time.

Calciomercato.com claim Giroud has agreed a two-year contract worth €4m per season.

The France international is also seeking a home in Milan and many believe the negotiations are down to the details.

He contributed 11 goals in 31 competitive games for Chelsea this season.
