Chelsea are thought to be exploring the possibility of bringing Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud to Stamford Bridge on loan for the remainder of the season, according to Sky Sports reporter Gianluca Di Marzio, cited by GFFN. 
Giroud, 31, has failed to nail down a starting spot in Arsene Wenger’s starting line-up this season after the arrival of Alexandre Lacazette in the summer, and has had to settle for a starting spot in cup competitions.
However, the same reporter has also stated that Giroud isn’t so keen on the move across London to join up with Antonio Conte, as he fears he won’t be getting enough game time.
Chelsea have been linked with several Premier League strikers this month, including Peter Crouch and Ashley Barnes, and it looks like the Blues may have to keep searching with Giroud not keen on joining the Gunners’ rivals.
Conte is desperate to add to his attacking options before the deadline closes on Wednesday, after publicly admitting his frustration over the past few weeks.- Read Sport
