The Blues coach is not opposed to the idea of ​​his captain participating in the 2024 Olympics following the Euro.

Euro 2024 will take place in Germany from June 14 to July 14. As for the Paris Olympic Games football tournament, it will be held from July 24 to August 10. Kylian Mbappé intends to take part in these two competitions.

An insane schedule would therefore await the captain of the Blues, who will already come out of a season with Paris Saint-Germain. However, Didier Deschamps does not seem to be opposed to this possibility. “If he has the desire and he has the possibility… Obviously, the objective for all of us is to ensure that Thierry Henry can have the most competitive French team possible for the tournament »declared the French coach on Wednesday during the 1 p.m. news on TF1, as part of Operation Yellow Pieces.

Countries participating in the Olympic football tournament will be able to register three players over the age of 23 in their selection. Kylian Mbappé might not be the only star of the France team to participate. On the RTL set, the president of the French Football Federation, Philippe Diallo, recalled Antoine Griezmann’s desire to participate in this competition.
