Emmanuel Macron, President of France, failed to convince Florentino Pérez, President of Real Madrid, to abandon his future player, Kylian Mbappé, to represent his country and play for the France U-23 national team in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Macron held a short meeting with Florentino Perez in which he tried to persuade the Real Madrid president to allow Mbappé to go to the 2024 Olympics, but everything indicates that Florentino did not change his decision.
Real Madrid had notified the French Football Federation that players would not be allowed to join their country’s Olympic team if they were called up. The Roosters’ U-23 team plays in Group A, which includes France, along with the New Zealand, United States, and Guinea teams. Kylian Mbappe tops the French team’s list, which includes 25 players, to compete in the finals of the European Nations Cup “Euro 2024”, which Germany will host during the period from June 14 to July 14, as part of the fourth group, with the Netherlands, Poland and Austria.
