Thierry Henry Discusses Ideal Positions for Olise and Dembele Ahead of World Cup Matches
Former French striker Thierry Henry has outlined his preferred positions for players Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembele as France prepares for upcoming matches in the World Cup.
In an interview with Fox Sports following France’s 3-0 victory against Sweden in the Round of 32 on Tuesday, Henry expressed his views on the players’ roles within the team.
Kylian Mbappe scored two goals, and Bradley Barcola contributed another to secure France’s win. Both Olise and Dembele have shown notable performance throughout the tournament, with Dembele contributing four goals and Olise providing five assists.
