France's record goalscorer Olivier Giroud has extended his contract with Ligue 1 outfit Lille by one season, the club announced on Monday.
The 39-year-old former Arsenal, Chelsea and AC Milan striker scored 57 goals in 137 games for France during a 13-year international career.
"I identify with Lille's vision, a club with values I share, one that works hard and stands out from the rest through its approach and results," 2018 World Cup winner Giroud said in a statement.
"I always want more, and I'm determined to keep going and do even better this year."
Giroud joined Lille last season and scored decisive goals including four in the Europa League.
Lille finished the season third qualifying for the Champions League.
His leadership was regularly praised by coach Bruno Genesio who has been replaced by Italian Davide Ancelotti, son of Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti.
"I don't know Davide Ancelotti personally, but the fact that he's a young coach is great," Giroud said.
"He's a coach with fresh ideas. I'm convinced he has a lot to offer the club, and I'm looking forward to working with him."
Giroud's goal-scoring record with France could soon be overtaken by Kylian Mbappe who has 56 goals.
