Giroud, 29, has hit form after being asked to lead the line for his country and would be a huge blow.

He scored twice in the quarter-final victory over Iceland and also netted in the group opener versus Romania.

Powerhouse Giroud is hoping to come through light training today ahead of tomorrow night's clash in Marseille.

Andre-Pierre Gignac, 30, has not added the same threat when replacing Didier Deschamps' first-choice hitman of the bench.

Giroud showed his versatility against Iceland as he raced onto a through ball to slot home and powered a Dimitri Payet free-kick in with his head for the tournaments hosts' fifth.

World champions Germany are without Mario Gomez and Mats Humells, with Sami Khedira and Bastian Schweinsteiger doubts.
