At the height of his 34 years, Olivier Giroud has a track record worthy of a great player. 2018 World Cup, 4 FA Cups, the Europa League or even Ligue 1, are the titles that make up its trophy cabinets. But like any professional footballer, the French striker has known a few idols of youth.
His former teammate in Tours (during the 2008/2009 season), Vinícius Julianetti, spoke about this in an interview with ESPN Brazil. “Giroud always told me about Rai, who was a very well-known player in France since his stint at PSG. He was a fan of it. He also praised Juninho Pernambucano who, at that time, was the great idol of Lyon. “
