France have qualified for the 2020 Games due to their performance four years ago and could turn to Edouard after his blistering star to life with the under-21s.

"And to have a place as a starter and a leader in the squad.

"I am thinking about it (the Olympic Games), however we are still far away from that. We have a season to complete.

"For the moment I am going to enjoy each match with the French national team to try to show my abilities.”

This season the first round of Champions League qualifying started on 9 July.
