French star would consider England
Middlesbrough target Olivier Giroud admits he is tempted by a move to England.
Boro are known to be keen on the 23-year-old FC Tours front-man, who has made an excellent start to the Ligue 2 season with 12 goals in 15 games.
Celtic are also tracking him, whilst Monaco are understood to be leading the posse of French clubs interested.
Giroud admits he dreams of playing in the Premier League, but is not sure whether he will be moving in January.
"It is true some Ligue 1 and foreign clubs are following me," he told
Le Quotidien du Foot.
"When a spy or a scout comes to meet me I give him my agent's contact.
"My priority remains Ligue 1, but in case of foreign propositions, I have always dreamt to play in England and the Premier League.
"There is Germany and Scotland too. If there is a good opportunity from abroad, I will have to think about it.
"But for me, the best scenario is to finish the season at Tours.
"At the moment I don't know what will happen. There could be some temptations at Christmas."
