Real Madrid is firm and uncompromising! The club from the Spanish capital sent a strong message to its players but especially to the French Football Federation!
Indeed, according to information from the newspaper l’Équipe, the Merengues have written to the FFF to warn them that none of their players will be authorized to play in the Olympic Games this summer. A decision that also applies to its entire workforce.
Thus, Eduardo Camavinga, Aurélien Tchouameni and Ferland Mendy will not be able to be part of Thierry Henry’s list to win Olympic gold next July and August. Another player should also be impacted by this decision.
The Olympic dream is fading away for Mbappé
Real Madrid has been clear: none of its players will play in the Paris Olympic Games this summer. And how can we not think of Kylian Mbappé. The French striker will leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer and join Real Madrid next season unless there is a big turnaround.
The Madrid club’s decision not to authorize its players to play in the Olympics should also apply to the captain of the Tricolores, who nevertheless dreams of playing in them.
KM7 does not want to force things
This would be a hard blow for the Parisian number 7 who dreams of being part of the French Olympic team. However, several weeks ago, during his report on Envoyé Spécial on France 2, he announced that he was not going to force things regarding the 2024 Olympics.
“I have always had the “Olympic flame”. Along with the World Cup, the Olympic Games are the most important sporting event. Plus in Paris… It means so much to me. To tell myself that I’m going to participate in the Olympics with France, it’s an extraordinary opportunity. It’s even a dream rather than an opportunity. Already, I’m going to try to go to the Olympic Games. It doesn’t depend on me though. »
Before continuing: “ I’ve said it before, I’ve reached an age where I no longer want to force things. Everyone knows that I want to play in the Olympics but if my club doesn’t want to, I will understand that. I have the maturity to understand both sides. But if I go there, I will be very happy. »
