- 20 Minutes Sport (@ 20minutesSport) February 13, 2020The decision will be taken anyway in consultation with PSG. Mbappé himself said it at the end of December: “I don't have everything under control. Of course I want to go, but if my club, which is my employer, does not want me to go, I will not go to clash. We will soon talk about it with Leo. "
"In terms of image, it would be complicated [for PSG]"
We do not yet know the position of the sporting director of the Paris club, but it is likely that the question of the extension of Mbappé will come to mix with that on his participation in the Games, which will take place in the wake of the Euro while the Ligue 1 will be on the verge of resuming.
Le Graët wanted to be rather confident. “I would rather have him at the Olympics, especially for the image. He's a boy who's already on top. But I put myself in the place of PSG. They may not want him to do all the competitions. But I don't think they would object. In terms of image, it would be complicated for them. And for us, complicated not to select it, "said the boss of the 3F two weeks ago.
