Real Madrid wants to be clear with its players, and certainly its future recruits, it will not allow anyone to make the Olympic Games after they have played the Euro or the Copa América. According to Marca, the club has already communicated the information to its players. Yesterday we also learned that the Spanish club had sent a letter to the FFF to indicate that it was not inclined to release its elements under contract this summer. The current La Liga leaders do not want to make an exception and the players will have to choose between continental competitions or the Olympics.

With this choice, the Madrilenians want to avoid injuries linked to match overload. The 2024-2025 season will be denser than ever with the integration of the first 32-team Club World Cup. In 2021, during the Tokyo Olympics, Marco Asensio was authorized to be part of the Spanish Olympic group. But the attacking midfielder had not played the Euro a few weeks earlier, since he had not been selected by Luis Enrique.
