French national team captain Kylian Mbappe Paris Saint-Germain reiterated his commitment to participate in the 2024 Paris Olympics in his country this summer.

“I always have the same ambitions. I always said I wanted to go to the Olympics, but it wasn’t up to me,” Mbappe told a news conference ahead of a friendly match against Germany on Sunday.

“I’m currently under contract with PSG, and they haven’t said anything. We haven’t even discussed about participating in the Olympics,” he added.

Mbappe, who was born in 1998, must play as a “wild card” given to three players for each team to compete in the Olympics where U23 players play.

However, the Olympics is not mandatory for FIFA, such as the World Cup or the European Championship, but can be rejected by the team it belongs to. Consultation with clubs should be given priority.

However, Mbappe is now certain to move to Real Madrid next season.

With PSG under contract until the 2023-24 season, Mbappe is highly likely to move to Spain as a free agent. That’s why Mbappe must be allowed to play in the Olympics after the summer on the team he wears.

Mbappe, who is likely to move to Real Madrid, made it clear that he was “no comment” on his future course of action.

“I haven’t announced anything yet because I have nothing to announce,” he said. “I’m sorry I didn’t have anything to say.” 토토사이트

“I think everything will be sorted out before Euro 2024,” he added.

ESPN quoted sources as saying, “Mbappe is in negotiations with Real Madrid. He wants 50-50 or more for a portrait rights contract with the club. We are also discussing details.”

Meanwhile, it is unclear whether Mbappe will be able to play as a wild card at the Paris Olympics. In addition to the Olympics, Euro 2024 will be held this summer.

ESPN reported, “In the Euro tournament, which runs from June 15 to July 14, clubs are obliged to allow the recruitment of players. However, the Olympics do not have to do so in contrast.”

Mbappe won the 2018 Russia World Cup, the 2022 Qatar World Cup, and the 2020-21 UEFA Nations League as a member of the A-team. However, he has yet to experience the Olympics.
