The French attacker made the decision to stop competing for Les Blues, his country's national team.
Remember how Didier Deschamps brought Karim Benzema back for the Qatar 2022 World Cup after he had spent many years away from the French team.
Sadly, the Real Madrid striker sustained an injury during their warm-up in camp and had to return to Madrid for further evaluation.
Giroud said, "It's a shame to end like this. It was his choice, we can't put ourselves in his place. I respect everything he did for France, in his club, in his career, and I respect his decision.
"I would have liked a different ending but it's his decision. He must have heard that his history with the national team is over.
Karim Benzema's spot is open since Deschamps didn't replace him, allowing the Frenchman to rejoin the squad.
It was learned that a few of teammates opposed Karim Benzema's rejoining the squad to participate in the remaining World Cup matches.
The Real Madrid star and Ballon d'Or winner reportedly left France following a disagreement with manager Didier Deschamps.
Giroud who currently playing at AC Milan added: "The clash with Deschamps? It doesn't concern me, I won't comment. In any case, it is certain that we were sad to see him leave like this before the World Cup, knowing that it would certainly be his last participation. It hurts to leave due to injury."
