Mbappé Absent from France's Olympic Squad Amid Transfer Speculation
Kylian Mbappe will not be part of France's under-23 soccer team for the Paris Olympic Games, as announced by coach Thierry Henry. Mbappe is expected to join Real Madrid, who did not release him for the Olympics. Henry's squad includes overage players Alexandre Lacazette and Jean-Philippe Mateta, but he faced challenges in assembling the team due to clubs' reluctance to release players for the non-FIFA event.
