If Kylian Mbappé does not play in the Olympic Games with Thierry Henry’s France Espoirs team, in the wake of Euro 2024, he will join his future Real Madrid teammates for a tour of the United States.

“I think we have to wait. I no longer need to say my intention, everyone knows it”. Kylian Mbappé reaffirmed his desire to play in the men’s football tournament of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, from July 24 to August 9. Thierry Henry’s U23 selection will face the United States at the Vélodrome, Guinea in Nice then New Zealand again in Marseille in their group A, to hope to reach the quarter-finals.

Kylian Mbappé should not, however, be released by Real Madrid, his very likely future club. Euro 2024 will take place in Germany from June 14 to July 14 and Casa Blanca has no obligation to release the captain of the France team for the Olympics which will take place immediately in France. The prodigy from Bondy will have two or three weeks of vacation, depending on the Blues’ progress at the Euro, before starting his preseason with Carlo Ancelotti’s Merengues.

An entry Clasico for Kylian Mbappé?

Mbappé will meet his Madrid teammates for the first time just before a pre-season tour of the United States. Casa Blanca has three gala matches on the program, against AC Milan on Wednesday July 31 in Chicago, against Barça for a beautiful New York Clasico, on Saturday August 3 at MetLife Stadium, and against Chelsea, Tuesday August 6 in Charlotte. Before returning to the Spanish capital to truly prepare for the 2024-2025 campaign.

If he is finally authorized by Florentino Pérez to represent France at the Olympics, Mbappé will probably not have any time off after the Euro, since he will join Thierry Henry to prepare for the football tournament, with the mission of winning the medal. gold on August 9 at the Parc des Princes. Still without a real summer vacation, the top scorer in PSG history will continue with the possible European Super Cup on August 14 in Warsaw (against Atalanta Bergamo) then the first day of La Liga the following weekend.
