In a few days, Thierry Henry will reveal his list for the Olympic Games. And the coach of the France Espoirs team knows that he must deal with the many issues surrounding player call-ups. Since this tournament is not a FIFA date, clubs can decide whether or not to release their players without risking sanctions. And if some clubs will play the game, this is not the case for all.
According to information from the Team, LOSC which will compete in the Champions League play-offs, has decided not to release any players for the Olympics. Consequently, Lucas Chevalier, who wanted to compete in the competition, will not be available, just like Lenny Yoro or Bafodé Diakité. Same thing for Benjamin André if he were to be called up in the list of 3 players over 23 years old. A big blow for Thierry Henry’s French team.
