Despite a pre-list revealed at the start of the week, Thierry Henry still has many uncertainties about his group. The coach of the French Olympic team has called up 25 players, but some of them are more than uncertain. As with Kylian Mbappé with Real Madrid, Ligue 1 clubs refuse to release their player. PSG, for example, does not seem inclined to have Bradley Barcola and Warren Zaire-Emery play the competition. For their case, Philippe Diallo indicated to The Team that “when Thierry Henry presented his list, he had no refusal from PSG to put these players on it”. The president of the FFF wants to be patient and continue to negotiate.
“I am in a constructive approach with the clubs, I know their constraints. I spoke with the Rennes managers and I know that if Thierry Henry is required to register one or two of their players, I think that the club will ensure that they can participate in the Games., he recalled in the French sports daily. The Olympic list can evolve until July 3. The preparation course will begin on June 16 in Clairefontaine.
