Real Madrid has exercised its option not to release its players for the Olympic Games soccer tournament. This decision has been questioned in France, since they fear that if the merengue team signs Kylian Mbappé, they will not be willing to lend him

Didier Deschamps, seleccionador French, had the opportunity to be leading in the press conference in the frame of the first day of concentration of the French selection of face to the international stop, in which 'Them Bleus' will confront to the selections of Germany (23/03) and Chile (26/03). Nevertheless, during this appearance in front of different media, there was a space to tackle a subject that recently has echoed a lot in the nation gala, related with the refusal of the Real Madrid to yield to his players for the tournament of football that will contest in the Olympic games of Paris 2024, from 24 July until 10 August.

As it informed 'L'Équipe' the past week, the combined merengue sent a post to the French Federation of Football expressing his refusal to send to his players of the first team (Eduardo Camavinga, Aurélien Tchouaméni, Ferland Mendy) to the olympic appointment. It is necessary to remember that the professional groups have the authority to decide if they wish to yield or no to his players, since the tournament does not correspond to a Date FIFA, by what are not forced to do it. In this case, apparently the Real Madrid has opted by not loaning to his active.

In relation with this, Didier Deschamps 'criticised' to the combined of Chamartín, but at the same time has recognised his right to decide what consider convenient to do with his players. "This can it to him ask to Thierry Henry (seleccionador national sub 23 of the Games). It is a bit old-fashioned (the posture of the Real Madrid on the Olympic games). The one who decides is the employer. While it was out of the Date FIFA, if it is no, is no", resolved.

It would leave the Real Madrid go to Kylian Mbappé to the Olympic games?

This decision of the Real Madrid goes back especially notable because of a name: Kylian Mbappé. Why? Simple, because if the events continue on its course, after finalising his stage in the Paris Saint-Germain on 30 June, would not happen long before 'The Turtle' turn into the stellar signing of the white square.

Under this premise, arises the interrogante on if the team of the Spanish capital would allow that 'Donatello' one to the olympic French selection in case of ficharlo. A question complicated if it considers the previously exposed stage and goes back even more complex if it takes into account the fact that Mbappé also would participate in the Eurocopa 2024 with 'Them Bleus', a doublet that perhaps the club merengue was not had to accept for the talentoso player of Bondy. However, this probably would bump with the interests of the exjugador of the Monaco, the one who has expressed his motivation for contesting the Olympic games, especially because they will celebrate in Paris, where he has been a figure stood out.

As it mentioned Thierry Henry, seleccionador French Or-23, in an interview with 'AFP' when it asked him if it was in his plans summon to 'Donatello' for the Olympic games: "we Say that I want to a player and his current club accepts. If it is traspasado in summer, who says that his new club will want to yield it? I do not know where it will finish, but the club will have something that say", sentenced.
