Paris Olympics: Why PSG Says No for Barcola and Zaïre-Emery but Yes for Hakimi
PSG will say no for the Olympics: Barcola and Zaïre-Emery will not be on Thierry Henry’s list for Les Bleus.
PSG is being selective with its permissions for player departures this summer. Unlike Real Madrid, which has denied all its internationals, PSG has reportedly agreed, according to L’Equipe, that Achraf Hakimi can participate in the Olympic Games this summer.
However, the Parisian club will not allow Warren Zaïre-Emery and Bradley Barcola to go, barring any last-minute changes.

Additionally, PSG aims to use this Olympic participation as leverage to convince Hakimi to extend his contract. It’s a win-win situation.
