The Madrid club, whose player will become a famous French striker, will not let the football player go to Paris.
Kylian Mbappe will not play for France at the 2024 Olympics. As reported by Madrid Zone, the management of Real Madrid, whose player will become the famous French striker, does not want to let the football player go to home games in Paris.
And the publication L’Équipe claims that French President Emmanuel Macron personally wanted to influence the position of the Madrid leadership, but he failed.
The previous day, an event dedicated to the 120th anniversary of FIFA took place in Paris. Macron also visited him, as well as the president of Real Madrid Florentino Perez, the coach of the French Olympic team Thierry Henry and the head of the French Football Federation Philippe Diallo discussed Mbappe.
The publication claims that the trio tried to convince Perez to let Mbappe go to the Olympics. And then Macron spoke face to face with the functionary for several minutes.
We remind you that the Olympic football tournament will take place from July 24 to August 9. The French team, as the host team, is placed in Group A, where it will play against the USA, New Zealand and Guinea.
The Ukrainian team is in Group B with Argentina, Morocco and Iraq. Accordingly, the “blue-yellows” can meet the hosts who are already in the playoff stage. The fact is that the winner of group A will play the second place of group B, and the winner of group B will play the second place of group A.
