“I haven't talked to him directly about the Olympic situation yet. You know, I've been calling the players. Of course, I'll keep it to myself.
“But Kylian appeared on TV the other day and said himself that he wants to play against them. I don't think anyone here would want Kylian Mbappé in their team, that's really crazy.
“But he also said it's up to the team, and I know that.” The Olympics are not on FIFA's calendar, so teams can say no. ”
