Adil Rami and Olivier Giroud: A Closer Look at Their Dynamic Relationship

During the Ligue 1 match against Paris FC on Sunday, Olivier Giroud played a key role in Lille’s 4-2 victory, ending a three-month goal drought. After the final whistle, he was approached by his former France teammate, Adil Rami, who was on the broadcast panel.

In a light-hearted mood, the 2018 World Cup champions shared a humorous exchange. The retired defender, who stepped away from professional football in 2023, jokingly began: “Olivier, live from Paris: Adil Rami. I’m not sure if you remember me.” Giroud responded with a grin: “How’s it going, my Adil? I’ve missed you. Still looking good.” Rami was surprised that Giroud could see him, prompting a playful jab from the former Arsenal player: “Of course I can see you, with that wet hairstyle.” This comment brought laughter to the Ligue 1+ studio.
