‘I’m aware of their situations’: Thierry Henry on France’s Olympic squad

Thierry Henry has named his provisional Olympic squad for the forthcoming Paris Olympic games, notably calling up young Paris Saint-Germain starlets  Warren Zaire-Emery (17) and Bradley Barcola (21) who have also been called into Didier Deschamps’ EURO 2024 squad.

Thierry Henry speaks of Zaire-Emery and Barcola’s potential involvement in two summer tournaments

Quizzed on the potential for fatigue and burnout of two young players with a hectic summer schedule, Henry was keen to stress that this was only the provisional 25-man squad:

Zaire-Emery and Barcola both featured heavily in another successful season for champions Paris Saint-Germain, and are expected to play a part in France’s Euro 2024 campaign, which begins on June 17th against Ralf Rangnick’s Austria and includes other group stage matches against the Netherlands (June 21st) and Poland (June 25th).
