“We know that he has plenty of possibilities, but he wants to play for France. You have to highlight his desire to show that he wants to play for the French team.
“If he was English, he would have already left to play for England. He could have made the other choice and played the Euros with the England team, like his teammate Eberechi Eze at Crystal Palace, but he wants to play for France, knowing that he wouldn’t play in the Euros.”
Olise has been invited to the France Olympic squad for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, slated to commence in July.
