Montpellier attacker Olivier Giroud has admitted that his agent has been in touch with Bayern Munich to discuss a potential summer move.

The Bavarians are determined to add another striker to their squad ahead of the 2012-13 campaign, and they see the 25-year-old France International as a valuable addition.

"I haven't spoken with Bayern Munich personally, but my agent has been in touch with them," the France international was quoted as saying by Sport Bild.

"Bayern Munich are very well known in France because of all the positive experiences other French players have had there. They have all said how well they were received at Bayern, and how happy they were at the club."

Giroud doesn't fear that he will end up warming the bench at the Bavarians due to the competition from Mario Gomez for the striker position.

"It's not unthinkable that Gomez and I rotate a bit because of the huge amount of matches Bayern play in various competitions. Gomez would probably be first choice in the big games at this point."

Giroud has a contract with Montpellier until the summer of 2014.
