Arsenal wants to do a dirty trick to Thierry Henry!

Between two sets for the British channels during the Champions League, Thierry Henry is especially active in preparing for the next events at the head of the France Espoirs team. The former Blues striker knows he has work and an exciting challenge this summer: the Olympic Games at home. At the Téléfoot microphone, he did not hide when displaying his ambitions. “You think Olympic Games, you think it’s in France, so the goal is Gold! Immediately, I thought of Aimé Jacquet because he gave us a vision, he visualized something. He allowed us to dream and he made us believe that we could win the World Cup. When you visualize something, and you dream and you think about it, it usually often turns out in your favor, if you are well prepared.he said.

But before thinking about gold, Thierry Henry will have to seriously rack his brains to make his list. With an XXL pool at his disposal, probably the best in the world currently, the former Arsenal legend will have to make choices. First of all choices in its list of U23 players (eligible for the Olympics) but also for the three players over 23 years old who can participate in the competition. In recent hours, information has been pouring out on this subject. While many were hoping for Kylian Mbappé in particular, the Bondynois seems to be moving away from the list just like Eduardo Camavinga or Aurélien Tchouameni. Because that’s the whole puzzle of the list. Since the Olympics are not a FIFA date, clubs can block players without being worried.

Arsenal do not want to lose Saliba at the start of the season

During the 2021 Olympics, France was faced with this and the list looked very little like what was expected. While the competition takes place in the middle of August, French and European clubs, not wanting to be penalized in their preparation and start of the season, risk further blocking the players. This year, with the Olympics in Paris, French clubs should show understanding and release certain players. But this is not the case for foreign clubs. Real Madrid have already sent a letter to the FFF to explain that no player will be released. And the Spanish club is not the only one to think that.

According to information from Mirror, despite the good relations between Thierry Henry and Arsenal, the English club absolutely does not intend to make any efforts this summer. In recent days, the possibility of William Saliba being called up by Henry for the competition has been strongly discussed. But the Gunners do not want to lose such an important player at the start of the season while the month of August is known to be intense in England. Saliba, who had already refused to participate in the Olympics in 2021 to concentrate on his preparation with Arsenal, also risks being summoned to the Euro, he who is present in the DD list. It is therefore difficult to see him going straight to the Olympics. Thierry Henry, who seemed to be betting on him according to the indiscretions of Parisianwill have to review his plans, because Arsenal will not give any gifts.
