French Sports Minister Amelie Oudea-Castera expressed hope in a comment to RMC Sport that forward of Paris Saint-Germain and the national team, Kylian Mbappe, will be able to participate in the 2024 Summer Olympics.
He has already given us so much, but we are disappointed because we want to see him more on the field in our country, watch him play more often. What I want to say is that he is still our captain in the French national team, and I really want him to play at the Olympic Games.
It is notable that the European Football Championship will take place from June 14 to July 14 in ten cities in Germany, while the Olympics in Paris will be held from July 26 to August 11.
Recently, various media reported that the Frenchman had already signed a contract with Real Madrid until the summer of 2029.
In the current season, Mbappe scored 24 goals and provided six assists in 26 matches of the 2023/2024 Ligue 1 season. The star Frenchman also has eight goals in ten Champions League matches. The forward's market value is €180 million.
Earlier, La Liga President Javier Tebas stated that he is confident in Mbappe's transfer from PSG to Real Madrid.
French President Emmanuel Macron also expressed hope that the forward of the Parisians will participate in the domestic Olympic Games.
