Chelsea FC has recalled Lesley Ugochukwu from France's Olympic squad. Initially part of the host nation's standby list, the midfielder has now returned to London.

The recall is reportedly driven by Chelsea's intention to send Ugochukwu on loan for the upcoming season. The French Football Federation confirmed the move, stating, "Lesley Ugochukwu leaves the Olympic selection. The midfielder is leaving the French Olympic Team this Friday, July 19, and will not be among the reserves for the Paris 2024 Olympic tournament."

The federation added, "Following a request from Chelsea FC, Lesley Ugochukwu will permanently leave the French Olympic football team and will no longer be available as a reserve."
