Tokyo option opens for Mbappé

The year 2021, beyond continuing to be in a pandemic, is marked in red by the football calendar. In summer the Eurocup will take place and days after the Olympic Games. Kylian Mbappé could attend both tournaments, of whom Noël Le Graet, president of the French Football Federation, hopes to attend the Olympic Games.

“If I want Mbappé to continue in France? Of course, “said Le Graet when asked about the forward's continuity at PSG. Regarding his possibility of playing the Olympic Games, the president of the highest body of French football replied: “I would love for him to go to the Olympics, he is a player who makes a lot of progress, which is serious … I would also love for him to continue at PSG, because he is the idol of young people today. “

Le Graët could not confirm the presence of the PSG striker at the Tokyo Olympics: “The Olympics? I still don't know. When you ask me, I can say that we can do it. But it is difficult between the matches of the French team and PSG if they go far (Champions League final). But I feel confident by his words of wanting to go to the Olympics “

A year ago, and before the cancellation of the Olympics, PSG sent a letter to the Federation to explain that they would not let Kylian Mbappé go to the event in Tokyo, as it is not a mandatory competition for FIFA, although according to RMC Sport, the Parisian team could have changed their mind.
