Mateta confirmed in final France Olympics squad
Thierry Henry has named his final 18-man France squad to play in their home Olympic Games, with Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta the only Premier League inclusion.
Olympic squads are made up of under-23s players, with up to three overage players allowed.
Mateta, 27, scored 16 Premier League goals last season, but he has never won a senior France cap.
Clubs are not obliged to release players for the Olympics - with Real Madrid not allowing France senior team captain Kylian Mbappe to join Henry's squad for Paris 2024.
Mateta's former Palace team-mate Michael Olise, who has just joined Bayern Munich for £50m, is also included in the squad.
Chelsea defender Lesley Ugochukwu, 20, is on standby for the squad.
Arsenal legend Henry is France Under-21s manager - as well as taking charge of the Olympics team.
He named his provisional squad in early June and Mateta scored twice a 4-1 warm-up win over Paraguay.
