Several football teams have qualified for the Paris 2024 Olympics, including France, the United States, and Spain. Notably, defending champions Brazil have failed to qualify, along with Team GB. The men’s tournament features mostly under-23 teams while the women’s teams are selected based on senior international performances. The qualification process is ongoing, with more spots available before the Olympics.
As preparations for the Paris 2024 Olympics intensify, many football players aspire to win the coveted Olympic Gold medal. However, participation in this event is limited, as FIFA’s regulations stipulate that the men’s tournament consists primarily of under-23 teams, allowing only three over-age players per squad. This rule is in place to minimize overlap with the FIFA World Cup, as the Olympics typically take place in mid-summer during the European pre-season.
