The move reunites Giroud with goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, his longtime France teammate who LAFC signed this winter from English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur.
Since the MLS Secondary Transfer Window opens July 18, Giroud could debut no sooner than LAFC’s July 20 regular-season match at Seattle Sounders FC. Their Leagues Cup campaign begins shortly after that.
“It is an incredibly exciting day for all associated with LAFC to welcome Olivier, his wife Jennifer, and his family to the club,” LAFC co-president & general manager John Thorrington said in a release.
“Olivier has a clear hunger to win, which he has done consistently throughout his club and international career. His championship ambition and his qualities as a man and as a player directly align with ours as a club. Therefore, we believe Olivier will be a great addition as we continue in our pursuit of more trophies.”
