Borussia Dortmund will consider a move for Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud if Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leaves the German club.

Giroud provided a clear indication that he sees his future away from the Emirates following the arrival of club record £44 million signing Alexandre Lacazette by describing himself as an Arsenal player “at the moment”. He has received interest from Everton, but they would be Giroud’s second choice if Dortmund confirm their interest.

That is dependent upon Aubameyang departing. He is due to go on Dortmund’s pre-season trip to Japan and China today. The transfer window in the Chinese Super League closes on Friday and a move there now seems unlikely for the Gabon forward. AC Milan are among his suitors with Dortmund seeking around £62 million
