The lookalike brother of a Premier League star quit football to have a surprising job

A Premier League former superstar went under the spotlight in the last few hours, as his impressive lookalike brother appeared on the media to talk about the season during the last few hours, having revealed an incredible story of how both started to play football some years ago.

The character in question is Romain Giroud, the 46-year-old brother of the Arsenal and Chelsea former player Olivier Giroud, currently playing for AC Milan, where he arrived from the Blues in 2021 for €2 million in a sensational deal for the Italian side, where he already conquered a Serie A title.

During an interview with French TV channel Telefoot, Romain Giroud brought his brother Olivier to the brink of tears with an emotional message, being revealed by his brother Romain as the best football player in the world. The confession made the media look up the life of Romain, and several impressive discoveries came up.

He never played football professionally

The brother of Olivier Giroud played alongside Thierry Henry, David Trezeguet and Nicolas Anelka as a teenager but never made it as a professional, as he gave up on playing football, deciding to become a full-time nutritionist. Romain revealed that through his brother, he made the career he never managed to make, which got the fans excited and thrilled with the confession, while Olivier will surely keep on evolving at Milan in the last years of his successful career.
