Real Madrid has announced to the French Football Federation (FFF) that it will not release its French players for the Paris 2024 Olympic tournament. This decision directly affects the young French midfielders of the Merengue club, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni, all two eligible.

Diallo warns Perez
Despite this, the president of the FFF, Philippe Diallo, does not intend to give up. “I always remain on the objective of having the best possible team. I don't make political fiction, I don't know where Kylian Mbappé will go, no announcement has been made, declared the French football boss. »
And to add: “Kylian expressed his wish to do them. We know the conditions, I regret the position of Real Madrid which closes the door to a dream of many players. I respect their decision. It is also the only foreign club to have informed us of this. If we have to go see Florentino Perez in Madrid, we will. »
