The almost 37-year-old AC Milan candidate for a starting shirt tomorrow against Ireland. The secrets of longevity in one sentence: “We are all in our twenties, the rest is experience”
– paris
France looks to the European. And Giroud too. In fact, the Rossoneri is applying for a place on the pitch tomorrow against Ireland. Also because Deschamps has to deal with the bruised Kolo-Muani. And so the almost 37-year-old is ready, relying on pills of wisdom: “We are all twenty years old, the rest is just experience”. Giroud has plenty of experience to sell, and to be asserted also against Thuram, his heir in pectore and direct competitor, also for tomorrow. At least in a system that includes a pivot tip, compatible with Mbappé’s characteristics. In reality, Deschamps has been evaluating an alternative trident for some time, which enhances the natural automatisms between Mbappé and his new PSG teammates, Dembélé and Kolo Muani. The possible forfeit of the latter, struggling with a nuisance in his right ankle that forced him to train partially on the sidelines yesterday, could therefore open the doors wide for Giroud as well.

Indeed, to the eternal Giroud, as can be seen from the latest article dedicated to him by the Equipe. For the sports newspaper, the longevity of the Rossoneri, with 4 goals in three Serie A matches at almost 37 years of age, depends on his work. And also from a philosophical approach to age, as he explained during the World Cup in Qatar: “We’re all twenty, the rest is experience”. Behind the maxim of an old wise man, in any case there is a lot of attention to sleep, considered essential for recovery, to nutrition, with a personal cook, to physical care.

All topics shared in the last two seasons with Ibrahimovic, his ancient youth idol with whom he lived in the locker room in Milan, listening to his advice to last over time. And lengthening the muscle strengthening sessions together, when all the other comrades went home instead. “At a certain point – admitted the best scorer in the history of Les Bleus – my body will say stop, but for now it seems to me that I’m doing well. So there are no limits.” Not even for tomorrow.
