Games in Paris:
Mbappe not in France’s provisional squad
France's star striker Kylian Mbappe may not make the Olympic Games squad he had hoped for in Paris. On Monday, coach Thierry Henry's goalscorer was probably not included in the provisional 25-man squad due to opposition from Mbappe's future employers Real Madrid.
Henry still has hopes of being able to nominate Mbappe, said the former world-class player.
Even French President Emmanuel Macron wants the 25-year-old to play in the Olympic Games. Mbappe himself has also already expressed his desire to play for the French team in Paris. In Group A, the French team will face the USA, Guinea and New Zealand from July 24. In principle, U23 players are eligible, although three players may be older.
