Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe has been included in a preliminary list of players selected for France's squad to compete at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

"He's old enough to go," Le Graet said. "Like all young people of his age who have talent, he is therefore on the list."

However, Le Graet hinted at discontent from football club presidents at the potential selection of their star references, pointedly referencing Mbappe's PSG club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

"Club presidents, in general, find that the dates [of the Olympic tournament] are not good," Le Graet said.

"I saw Nasser. I asked him how was Mbappé. He said to me, "very good".
