Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud could be playing for FA Cup opponents Middlesbrough.
Giroud was with Tours at the time, but in the end chose Montpellier over Boro in 2010.
"Yes, that's true," Giroud told Arsenal.com.
"Middlesbrough and Celtic (also wanted to sign me). It was a great team today they are close to coming back into the English Premier League."
