If he had always confided his desire to participate in the Paris Olympic Games next summer, Kylian Mbappé recently assured that he will not go into a standoff with his employer, PSG, even if his wish remains heard to take part in Paris 2024. Questioned by theAFP on this subject, Thierry Henry, who will be coach of the French Olympic team at the Olympic Games, assured that convincing clubs to release players for this competition would remain complicated, especially with foreign clubs.
“Kylian has a special place everywhere. But between wanting and being able there is a difference. I don’t know where he will end up (next summer) but the club will have a say. I haven’t contacted him about this yet.”he first explained, before assuring that it was a broader problem. “The (French) clubs and presidents have been receptive, but the problem will certainly arise with foreign clubs. Why would they release their players? And it’s not just that. I don’t know who I will select yet, but let’s say I want a player and his current club accepts. If he is transferred during the summer, who tells me that his new club will want to release him?
