OVH as a RB/RWB?
I can see Bazeley going with 3 CBs against France who will have a stacked team, and maybe even the USA. So that gives a bit more scope for someone like OVH to bomb forward up & down.
Might all be moot if one of Singh or Libby is unavailable. We will probably get a hint by what players are rested from the AWs at OFC Nations Cup in June. Any Euro clubs may say you can't play in both that & the Olympics. Wood is getting married in June so likely missing the Nations Cup anyhow. Tommy Smith seems his best mate in the AWs, so he might get an invite to the UK nupitals.

With talents like Eduardo Camavinga, Bradley Barcola and Warren Zaire-Emery potentially at his disposal, (French coach Thierry) Henry will want to top the group.

It is understood that Paris Saint-Germain superstar Mbappé is also very keen to represent his country at the Olympics, but he would likely have little time to rest after Euro 2024.
Football's world governing body FIFA does not oblige clubs to release players for the Olympics, which could complicate Mbappe's situation even more.
