Where is Mbappé, Messi, Pulisic and Yamal?

Although there was much speculation about some top table names making an appearance at the Games, especially France’s very own superstar, other considerations over health and club meant this wasn’t to be.

The likes of Kylian Mbappé, Christian Pulisic and Lamine Yamal are not playing in Paris, with the latter very comfortably fitting within the age restrictions. Elite players are rarely chosen to represent their nations at the Olympics.
