According to our information, the standard bearer will not be Kylian Mbappé, nor Antoine Dupont, nor Victor Wembanyama, three immense French athletes, known to the general public but who have never yet participated in the Olympics. Because one of the criteria for applying is to have already attended the big Olympic stage. Another condition: candidates must not have already been a standard bearer in the past. In fact, two other stars will be eliminated: Teddy Riner, head of the delegation in Rio in 2016, and Clarisse Agbégnénou, who succeeded him in Tokyo in 2021 (she shared the role with gymnast Samir Ait Said, who will not be able to no longer be renewed).
